Web Exclusives: More letters from alumni
about Low wages at Princeton Having worked many hours in the dining halls as an undergraduate, I clearly recall so many of the employees who were low-income minorities occupying a marginalized relationship to the university as a whole, and yet whose contribution was essential to our day-to-day life. These employees should receive sufficient cost-of-living increases, a transportation subsidy if they travel from some distance, and comprehensive health care coverage for themselves and their families. The university should not attempt to minimize its financial expenditure by hiring on a part-time or casual basis. I believe the future of our world depends on us becoming morally and ethically responsible to each other. Princeton has an important opportunity here to set a standard by exemplifying real humanism.
