Porterite is correct, the job was not merely created. It has always existed, and any time the university has a husband/wife come for a job, and they are both qualified they try to give BOTH people a job. The position his wife holds receives that amount of pay regardless, and the position would exist even if his wife were not employed by the university.

Instead of jumping to random conclusions and hopping on the band-wagon, try investigating things more thouroughly.
