Big plans for 2012....!! - kevin wooldridge - 4th January 2012
I feel committed to supporting the creation of a positive, sustainable and financially viable career for all professional archaeologists at all points in their career...

does that include starting on minimum wage?

A lot better than how it used to be (when income from 'subsistance' was significantly less than from signing-on), and plenty of us survived that and have managed to make a 'career' in archaeology - and until universities start expending considerably more effort in the direction of teaching practical fieldwork disciplines I'm afraid most new graduates unfortunately come under the heading of 'unskilled labour'
- but isn't this replicating another thread?
