CSU Salary Proposal : 4.0% GSIs (General Salary Increases) : 5.53% GSIs+1% “merit” : 5.84% GSIs+1% “merit” : 6.5% GSIs+ 1% “merit” TOTAL = 24.87%??
Their 24.87% package includes 4% that would be subtracted to “purchase” SSIs (Service Salary Increases) for some of our faculty with the GSIs of all %
Another 3% of the “package” would be contingent on an additional allocation from the Governor and legislature beyond the “compact.” 17.87%
Another 3% allocated to an undefined “merit” program. The administration gets unfettered discretion to hand out raises Leaves faculty with no meaningful appeal rights %
In reality, the package amounts to 14.87% in salary increases that most faculty could count on for the next FOUR years. (3.71% per year)

CFA SALARY PROPOSAL GSI 4.0% SSI* For all eligible EQUITY**.5 pool * SSI = 2.65% ** Defined equity program provides opportunity for classes of faculty to address the “experience penalty.” Decisions grievable.
CFA SALARY PROPOSAL GSI 4.25% SSI ALL faculty* Equity.5 pool PPI**.5 pool * All faculty in all ranks would get this 2.65% SSI.

Decisions grievable.

Fix the Broken Salary System Too many faculty are trapped by salary inversion. Faculty who have been hired in the last few years make less than newly hired colleagues, aka an experience penalty.
