Dear LMU Faculty and Staff:
Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, you have given so much of yourselves to ensure a smooth transition to and from (and to and from again) remote learning, teaching, living, and working. Without missing a beat, you continuously deliver on the LMU promise, educating and helping form the world’s future leaders as persons for and with others.
In gratitude for what each of you do, and taking into consideration inflationary concerns, I am happy to announce that eligible faculty and staff will receive a permanent two percent increase in salary, which will be reflected in your next paycheck (Feb. 11 for employees paid bi-weekly or Feb. 15 for full-time faculty paid semi-monthly). Please note that this is separate from the 2022 annual merit increase; further information and eligibility requirements can be found here.
Your creativity and commitment to our mission make possible the world-class education we provide for our students, along with the scholarship of our faculty and our service to many who are in need. I hope this salary increase helps support your continued excellence as we create the world we want to live in.
With sincere admiration,
Timothy Law Snyder, Ph.D.
President
