UUP Discretionary Awards

Letters from President Conway-Turner notifying UUP employees who have received a discretionary award were sent to campus e-mail addresses on Tuesday, November 12.  

Some employees who were nominated have not been added to the award list because they have not completed the mandatory Sexual Harassment Prevention Training. These employees will receive a separate letter from the assistant to the president and chief diversity officer notifying them of such, and advising them of available options.

UUP employees who did not receive an award letter are reminded that they may appeal the decision by Wednesday, November 20, as follows:

Appeal Process
Any eligible faculty or professional staff member who is not notified by the president of an award by the designated date should assume that his or her name is not on the preliminary list. Employees not scheduled for an award and employees dissatisfied with the amount of their award may file an appeal with the Appeals Board. 

The Appeals Board includes the president, provost, vice presidents, CIO, deans, and other administrative staff selected by the president. The board will consider written appeals of no more than 600 words. The board meets in closed session, and testimony or personal appeals will be by invitation only.

Written appeals, addressed to the president, must be delivered to the President’s Office by 5:00 p.m. Wednesday, November 20, 2019. All appeals should be sent electronically to uupdiscretionary@buffalostate.edu. Only appeals sent to that address will be considered.

Appeal candidates will be notified of the outcome of the appeal by Tuesday, December 3. Discretionary awards will be reflected in the paychecks dated December 24, 2019.
