The folks at the living wage campaign are, for the most part, NOT employees of the university: they are students who are engaged enough in their community to know the grave injustices of UGA employment policies, which is more than you can say for most students (because I agree with you, the majority of the students at UGA are mindless, selfish idiots who DEFINITELY don't tip well).
Also, you have your facts wrong about benefits and pay for workers at UGA--next time you get a flyer, instead of thinking of yourself, read it!
The university starts workers at a base pay of $7.25 (minimum wage). They are not allowed overtime pay, and most workers are kept at "part time" or "seasonal" (the university does this by firing then rehiring people) status or they are contracted workers, so they receive no benefits (they don't even get parking spots on campus!) UGA is the #1 employer in the county, yet Athens-Clarke is the 4th poorest in the United States--obviously a living wage is a necessary step to rectifying the disparity.
I won't miss the students either, but please refrain from running your mouth about something as crucial as a living wage for UGA workers when you clearly don't know what you're talking about.

wal-mart has almost the same practices as UGA.
