91¶ÌÊÓƵ Faculty/Librarian/Staff Retiree Benefits 

Towson University's Office of Human Resources recently announced more extensive Faculty and Staff Retiree Benefits that in many ways mimic those benefits previously granted to many categories of retired faculty and 91¶ÌÊÓƵRFA members.  To see those benefits now granted to all University faculty and staff who retired from employment with the State of Maryland, see the university’s Retiree web page.  This page has much useful information.  Scroll down a little until the section heading of RETIREE PERKS, DISCOUNTS, AND BENEFITS.  Here you will find links to these benefits.

The 91¶ÌÊÓƵRFA Benefits and Privileges Committee suggests that 91¶ÌÊÓƵRFA members explore this page in depth, clicking on the areas of interest and concern and digging down for details.  At this time, the committee itself is exploring the details of these perks and what they mean for 91¶ÌÊÓƵRFA members. We will post the specific details as they become available.
