Agree that it's a debasement of academic standards, but a minor correction: the instructor who was put on administrative leave is a graduate student, not a professor.
In some ways this is worse. This one incident could derail their academic career before it even starts.

TL;DR: the *actual* poverty line in the US for a family of four with two young children is about $140,000, and there isn't much improvement in quality of life between $40K and $100K.
There's more good stuff in there too, you should read the whole thing.
