Adminstrative Salary Update
The Board of Regents did not approve a "Waiver of Return Service Obligation" for UH Hilo Chancellor Tseng as part of an employment separation package. On May 29 the Board of Regents refused to allow the Chancellor to take a sabbatical leave that did not require a return to UH Hilo for additional service.
The BOR decision came after testimony by JN Musto, on behalf of UHPA, protesting the lack of public disclosure on the retroactive "special "salary adjustment and the attempt to negate the tradition of faculty returning after a sabbatical to perform additional university service.
