<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk49941647"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Due to the August 26 decision by the President, Provost, and CFO to exempt Cooperative Extension and 50% of Experiment Station funding from the Furlough-based Salary
Program, many faculty and staff within ALVSCE will “flip” to the Furlough Program effective with the pay period beginning August 24th.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk49941647"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Compared to the salary reduction program,
<b>being in the Furlough Program means you’ll take home a <u>larger portion</u> of your annual salary.
</b>The exempted portion of pay reduces the number of furlough days a faculty or staff member would otherwise be required to take. For instance, someone on 100% Cooperative Extension funding would have zero furlough days and take home 100% of their annual
pay.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
