Dear Faculty and Librarians,

Right now, Governor Healey is asking the Group Insurance Commission (GIC) to shift $100 million in healthcare costs from the Commonwealth onto us. If this goes through, it will mean higher co-pays, deductibles, and premiums, along with the elimination of coverage for critical prescriptions such as GLP-1s.

Dear Members,

Last Friday you received an email from Marie Bowen, Vice Chancellor of Human Resources, confirming when we will receive our January 2026 pay raise.

This is great news but some of that raise may be taken away by changes in our health insurance plans.

Dear Members,

For the past six months, funding for a variety of federal programs has been cut, reduced or even frozen.  Each funding action affects a grant, research work and even student support programs (TRIO).
