UWP Lecturers workload settlement checks

UWP lecturers:

I have been advised by UCR Labor Relations that the workload settlement checks for 07-08 are now being mailed out.  The people who are getting these checks are those who taught in 07-08 and also taught in 08-09.  If you worked full-time in 07-08 (i.e. 9 quarters instead of the new 8 quarter full-time load), you should be getting $721.79.  The shrinkage is due to the addition of several people to the settlement who taught in 07-08 whom Human Resources had completely overlooked when calculating what was available per person.

People who taught fewer than the full 9 comp courses during 07-08 will receive a pro rata payment.  The union insisted on this, per the general consensus of those who attended the meetings late spring quarter to discuss the proposed settlement, and this is the other reason why the checks are less than $1,000 per person.
