A subcommittee of the FESC is currently studying Faculty pay related issues including cost of living adjustments, health insurance expenses, pay equity, pay compression, performance related bonuses, adjunct salaries, and overall compensation related competitiveness with regard to the peer institutions.

If you choose to speak, each speaker is allotted 3 minutes for comments to hear from as many speakers as possible. The chat box can be used for additional questions or comments. Dr. Susan B. Harden, the Faculty President, will be moderating the session. Comment starters:

  • What is your perspective on the compensation at UNC Charlotte and why?
  • How does the compensation system impact you or your unit professionally?
  • How does the compensation system impact you personally?
  • What ideas might strengthen the compensation?
  • What do you like about our compensation? What are your concerns?
