[TexasTowelie]

Faculty and staff in the Southern University System will soon receive a 4 percent raise, Janene Tate, a spokesperson for the system said Monday.

Raises will go into effect starting Thursday for Southern University at Baton Rouge, but Tate said she isn’t sure when raises will go into effect at the other Southern University campuses.

Raises for faculty and staff in the University of Louisiana System haven’t yet been finalized, but are expected to be in the range of 2.5 to 3 percent, Cami Geisman, vice president of external affairs for the UL System, said Monday.

“We‘d like (raises) to be annual,” she said.

Staff raises for college and university employees were added to the budget that the Louisiana Legislature passed during this year’s regular session.
