At our annual fall address in August, President Muma shared one of our priorities is to identify funding for employee compensation – something that impacts each and every one of us. Recognizing we cannot depend solely on the state to solve this funding gap for us, we have established a cross-functional committee called Project Bridge.
The Project Bridge committee is exploring recommendations for how to fund our employee compensation gap, and we’d like your input. We invite you to share your thoughts and recommendations on ways we, as a university, can either:
- Increase revenues while still meeting our affordability priorities or
- Decrease/reallocate expenses to free up existing dollars for employee compensation.
We are looking for ideas that can be implemented immediately, as well as those that may take time.
