The Eagle: A&M bases bonus on student input

The head of the Texas A&M University System wants to give faculty members bonuses, but many are saying no thanks.

“I’ve never had so much trouble giving away a million dollars,” Chancellor Mike McKinney said, laughing.

That’s because he’s never spent it like this. McKinney plans to give up to $10,000 bonuses to instructors based on anonymous student evaluations.
