Dear FSU Member,
We are providing you with a couple of updates.
Pay Raises: Our pay raise funding was included in Governor Baker’s February 18th Supplemental Budget request. The request is before the state legislature for debate (not for our funding but executive branch initiatives). Hopefully the legislature will vote shortly, the governor will sign and then our Human Resources can begin the process of member payment.
Campus Construction: For those on campus during Spring Break be aware of specific construction activities taking place. These activities are being done while many of us are not on campus. These include Healey library entrance and McCormack paver installation. Please see slides 10 and 11 of the slideshow for details. https://www.umb.edu/editor_uploads/images/university/masterplan/SDQD_Comms_(03-02-22).pdf
We wish you all a happy March 14th Pi Day (3.1415982), a happy March 17th Evacuation Day (Suffolk County) and a great week.
Sincerely,
Steve Striffler Caroline Coscia
