Most faculty members also will see a one-time payment in their December 13 paycheck. This bonus will be around $200. Reclassifications for Specialized Faculty should be completed this month as well.

Bargaining Update – Bonus – September 23, 2013

  By ,

In acknowledgement that the delay in implementing raises is a loss of pay to faculty, the bargaining teams agreed to distribute the funds across the bargaining unit.  This will result in a one time payment to faculty who have been rated satisfactory on their evaluation.  This payment will be distributed on December 13, and will be over $200 with the exact amount to be calculated by the university.

This bonus along with all provisions of the contract must be ratified by the faculty in a vote this week.  All modified provisions of the contract are posted here.
