The Office of Human Resources is reminding campus that every five years, the timing of the academic calendar for the beginning of the fall semester and the start of the faculty pay for the academic year creates a one-week gap in pay for 9-month faculty that have elected to be paid over 12 months.
This year, the 2023-24 pay ends on August 10, and the 2024-25 pay begins on August 19, 2024 (one week before classes begin). The timing of the 2023-24 pay end and the 2024-25 pay begin dates creates a one-week gap. Therefore, the August 2024 paycheck for 9-month faculty that have elected to be paid over 12 months will have one less week when compared to August 2023, all else being equal. The full salary will be paid out by August 2025.
The Office of Human Resources has communicated this with department HR liaisons and will communicate directly with affected faculty in the coming weeks.
