Reminder: Discretionary Salary Increase application requirements and deadlines

The following information was shared with all faculty and staff via email on Feb. 25.


Dear Faculty Colleagues:

Given the limited timeline, and that there have been many conversations and communications about the Discretionary Salary Increase (DSI), it seems warranted to clarify that we are proceeding with the application process as originally announced. Please see below a summary and reminder of important information regarding submission of applications for Discretionary Salary Increases for the 2020 period.

The call for DSI applications for full-time faculty, with detailed information, can be found here.

The call with complete details for part-time faculty can be found here.

The calls for applications contain important information about the online submission platform being used for this year’s application process, which replaces the previous paper-based process.
