For many years, I have attended the teacher job fair held at UMSL. I have never found a job through these fairs though I have 25 years teaching experience, two certifications and excellent references. I planned to attend this year ever positive a good opportunity may be available. I am shocked the university now feels it must charge an admission to people out of work who can least afford it. It also shocks me that a state university has the nerve to charge admission. I would think a state funded university would do all it could to promote education in the state that funds it with tax dollars taken from teachers salaries as well as all working people in Missouri. Perhaps you could publish the name(s) of the administers at UMSL that make this decision so I could email them directly. Since they are well paid to make such decisions, it is only right they open themselves up to feedback.
