Pension Plan:
Our Treasurer June Riley reminds you that in order to qualify for membership in the pension plan CUPFA members must teach 3 courses within a calendar year. Once you qualify you remain in the plan even if your workload decreases in later years. Therefore try to order your course preferences on your application to make it easier to qualify for the plan.
