An Update on the Proposed Payroll Transition
Dear faculty and staff,
Earlier today, members of University leadership and I met with representatives from Faculty Senate, Staff Council and the campus AAUP chapter regarding the planned transition to a biweekly payroll cycle.
Thank you to everyone who has shared questions, concerns and feedback over the past week. We have heard you, and today鈥檚 discussions helped us identify a solution designed to address several of the concerns employees have raised.
Most importantly, the approach currently being explored would ensure every employee receives two paychecks in the month of August. The plan will not interrupt health coverage, retirement and other benefits.
While details are still being finalized, our goal remains to implement this transition in a way that minimizes disruptions to faculty, staff, graduate students and their families.
Today鈥檚 discussions were productive and helped move us forward. Our next step is a conversation with you and the broader campus community during a town hall next week. Additional details will be shared soon.
Again, thank you for your engagement, your partnership and your continued dedication to our students and the University.
Sincerely,
Dr. Ramesh Kolluru
President
