Summer is Here

Many of your Faculty Association officers will be taking some well-deserved time off in the coming weeks, but we are well aware that business continues at TRU; therefore, the Stewards Committee has ensured that you can have access to a steward any time. The Summer schedule for stewards is available here.

Pension News

John Wilson gave some great presentations on pension. If you missed them, or if you want to see John's overhead, we have them for you. The first part deals with an overview of the pension plan, and the second part deals with anticipating your retirement.
