Our base salary increase here was 1.5 percent this year. Health insurance costs are likely to be up about ten percent, and I'm not sure what is going to happen to deductibles, copays, or the quality of coverage.

One implication is that it could make sense for higher ed labor and professional groups to support a national health insurance policy for reasons of self-interest, including the interest of providing affordable quality education, without being (entirely) motivated by political preferences.

New #EdWorkingPapers with Nicolas Dominguez-Mel, @wesleytmorris.bsky.social & @smontana.bsky.social: using statewide data from MD, we ask whether "local" teachers are more effective and more likely to stay. Takeaway: local recruitment complements — but doesn't substitute for — quality preparation.
