The Holocaust hits close to home for senior physics major Belle Marco.

Despite a national trend of stagnant salaries among college faculty, TCU faculty salaries remain on the rise, a university official wrote.

Don Mills, vice chancellor for student affairs, wrote in an e-mail that the average salary among all workers at TCU increased 3 percent last year and will be increased 2.5 percent this year based on merit.
