Barb:

> 1.  The minimum pay/semester for a Master's level Graduate Research

Yes, it was just increased to attractthe best and the brightest
students per faculty's request which was approved by faculty senate
and administrative council.  The minimum RA stipend is $14,400/year
for this academic year.

> 2.  If your institution has set a cap on Grad Research Assistant pay;
NO.

I am wondering from the list members:  What type of policy do you
have on RA's workload?  What is a typical RA workload hours per
week?  Does that include classroom work or just a research work?

Thanks,
