On May 14, 2021, President Drake authorized the Chancellors to move forward with the 2021-22 Salary Program for Policy-Covered Staff. In recognition of the extraordinary efforts contributed by our policy-covered staff members during these challenging times and the inability to provide a merit program last year, this year’s program provides for a 3% general increase to all eligible recipients.
