Fwd: BSA: Fwd: Communications Coordinator position

Fellow Web editors: at least the salary range is starting to be
realistic, though it's still pretty low, given the responsibilities.
I wonder what classification they used to get the "$60,000-70,000"
range. I've never seen this range on any hr pay scales lately.
