UTU President Mayer has informed the Commissioner that post-tenure review is a UTU matter. One nomination for an honorary degree has been received in the Senate office. More are anticipated in the next few weeks. The Senate will vote on these at its March meeting, in Executive session. Senators are asked to review the nomination in the Senate office.
Strict confidence is to be observed.
From now forward, Motions of Bereavement will be read and there will be a moment of silence no matter how full the Agenda. UTU President Mayer summarized the UTU's activities since the last meeting. The UTU has hired a lobbyist and he is doing well. The annual cost of living increase for retirees looks like it is going through. President Mayer also briefed that the UTU has sent a letter to the BOR regarding post-tenure review.
