Will ASU consider implementing a cost of living adjustment for employee salaries? Many full-time employees, myself included, are finding it increasingly challenging to make ends meet. Despite the soaring cost of living, our salaries have not kept pace, leaving us struggling financially.

Hello, this year's employee appreciation BBQ falls on March 28 and 24, which is during Ramadan. I was wondering if we could consider selecting a date outside of Ramadan so Muslim employees can also attend. I also ask if we can consider having vegan and vegetarian items so the event is more inclusive.

It's disheartening to observe how the current structure of pay increases within our institution predominantly benefits those in leadership and management roles, while overlooking the dedicated individuals working tirelessly in lower positions.

I spoke to someone in HR within the past year that said that the Roth IRA contribution in the 457(b) was not an option because one person in HR decided not to let it be an option. They said that the change would be happening to allow the Roth IRA contribution, but I haven't seen it. Can you please look into this being an option?

Does ASU plan on raising salaries to combat inflation, align to market value and combat the astronomical rise in cost of living for employees? The cost of everything has risen significantly and salaries do not reflect this. I work full time and am not making enough to make ends meet anymore. What is being done to address this? Your employees are suffering. I see multiple posts about employees voicing the same concern and nothing has been addressed or improved?

What is ASU's policy on paying for employees to get or renew professional certification required or by their position? The Zoom and Career EDGE and LinkedIn Learning are of poor quality and do not reach the educational requirements set forth by these professional organizations.

Can it please be addressed that the parking spot lines in the Apache parking structure need to be re-painted clearly? Currently, the previous parking spot lines are still reflective and the current parking spot lines are fading. This is causing the cars to park in old marked parking spots and is causing parking to be off-centered and not all parking spaces to be properly spaced/filled. If the parking lines in this space can be re-painted clearly is appreciated.

Why is there no longer a Vice Provost for the Downtown Phoenix and Poly campuses to oversee the collaborations and administration of those campuses to ensure units are collaborating? This position used to ensure that all leadership was aware of campus-wide efforts and maximizing opportunities to enhance the campuses events and outreach. With the lack of this position, it appears that the units on the campuses are operating in siloes now.
