The Montana University System Board of Regents will conclude its three-day meeting at Montana State University-Northern today.
Regents met for executive session to talk of personnel issues Wednesday, and Thursday they convened from 7 a.m. to just before 6 p.m. to listen to presentations and to take action on agenda items.
Included in the agenda items was a pay increase for Northern faculty, which the board approved along with increases for other schools' faculty.
"The primary economic component of this new labor agreement is a normal salary increase of 2.25 percent plus $250," says a memo from Deputy Commissioner Kevin McRae to the board of regents explaining the increase.
The pay increase will take effect Oct. 1. The faculty received a pay raise of an equal amount last October.
