I have a similar problem. I am an assistant coach not getting paid much, we have a few Grad Assistants who get tuition remission, stipend, plus room and board. This would not bother me normally.
One of our GA's has not taken one single class yet, technically did not even get admitted into the grad school in any program, yet still takes the stipend, free housing, and full meal plan. Also he complains about the whole situation (which is actually more annoying than the rest of it).
In addition he has been lying on his recruiting reimbursements- we get paid per mile if we drive our own car somewhere, but we are supposed to take a rental if we go more than 2 hours away. He has taken his personal car on several trips this year- mostly to see his girlfriend (4 hrs away), compete in meets, go home (3 hrs away), go to his alma mater (2 hrs away)...and has claimed them all as "recruiting" and has apparently bragged to another coach about how he has gotten "thousands of dollars" out of the school for all this, and that he has not talked to a single recruit since the fall. By the end of the season all but 2 of his athletes quit the team, citing that he is "hard to work with".
I would love to get an essentially free Master's degree from this school- and could care less if I did not get everything else that the GA's get. I'd glady take tuition only.
Is there is a good way to bring this up to someone without looking like a complete moron? If it came down to it I am sure we could prove that he did NOT recruit all those weekends he said he was. I have nothing to hide as I have done everything by the book this year.
Opinions? What would you guys do?
