Coltrane’s not giving our faculty union any credit for these raises, but at least he’s not blaming the union, so I guess that’s progress:
To: All Faculty
From: Scott Coltrane, Provost and Senior Vice President
Date: November 2, 2015
Re: FY 2016 Compensation Increases
I would like to share with you the following important details about compensation increases for all faculty:
$650 one-time payment to be issued for all faculty
Any faculty employed in November will receive this one-time payment on the end-of-November paycheck.
The amount will be pro-rated by your November 2015 FTE.
Pay increases
All faculty with an appointment at any point in FY 16 will receive a 2% increase to their base salary.
Pay increases are effective January 1, 2016 and will be applied to end-of-January paychecks.
The Office of the Provost and Academic Affairs is available to answer any questions. Please contact Pam Palanuk ([email protected])
Word is that the OA’s will also get the $650 one-time payment or if they prefer a side of beef, cut and wrapped. Plus a 2% pool for merit raises.
OA’s increase is a MERIT increase based on a 2% pool. So different than faculty increases which are 2% ATB.
OAs also getting the $650 payments in November.
Thanks for correction!
Maybe the reason for hiring so many more administrators is to avoid the small pool problem in their merit pools!!
Were NTTF left out of this? I didn’t get the email but thought this included us.
Same raises apply to all NTTF and ORs.
OAs are getting the $650 but the raises in January don’t work the same way.
Each campus unit with OAs gets a pool of money that is equivalent to 2% of every OA’s current salary. So if you have 4 OAs, you get 2% of each of their salaries in a combined pool. Then within the unit those people supervising OAs decide how to allocate the money. So you could give each of your 4 hypothetical OAs their 2%–or you could choose to allocate the pool differently, based on merit.
