Comment College/gambling partnership deals⦠(Score 1) 32

Didnâ(TM)t some colleges even get into partnerships with the gambling companies?
The money sloshing around D1 football and basketball is bad enough. When I saw the partnerships, my thought was: âoesomeone just shut the lights out on your way out. You are no longer a college. âoe

The state cops in my state make up about 33 percent of the top 1000 people on the payroll. They make more than presidents of the state colleges. But not the state university. They make more than the vast majority of professors either at college or university level.

It is not uncommon to have a decent sized group of state cops making 300k or more.

âoeWe work wicked hard and do a lot of overtime.â
