New Paltz DSI 2025 Distribution Report

On the December 24 payroll, some 442 of our bargaining unit members received an increase to their base salary, along with a retroactive payment of that increase to either July 1 (calendar year employees), August 22 (for adjuncts) or September 1 (academic year employees). These increases came from a provision in our statewide Agreement, which requires the Employer to distribute .5% of the total UUP payroll to our members via Discretionary Salary Increases (DSI). Please note that the discretion involved in this distribution is solely that of the Administration.

The pool of money available for each type of increase is stipulated at .5% of the total UUP salary pool. The actual salary increases distributed in the 2025 round of DSI was $275,767.00, in amounts ranging from $100 to $1,563.

Attached is the list of DSI recipients (sorted by department and last name) and the amounts distributed by the Administration in 2025 in PDF format.
