Welcome to the sixth issue of For Your Benefit, a newsletter addressing the total compensation (pay + benefits) offered to you as a UT employee.
In this issue, we discuss how to prepare for retirement at any age and the advantages offered to employees. We also are delighted to share information about campus summer camps for children K-12, fun stories on families with multiple members working at UT, tips on how to train people with different learning styles and much more!
This newsletter is “For Your Benefit,” so I encourage you to send us any suggestions or questions we can address to make this newsletter more beneficial to you. Thank you all for your service to our University!
