Benefits
Fair Kicks Off Open Enrollment Period
Join the Division of Human Resources for the 2002 Benefits Fair
Wednesday, Nov. 13 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. in the Heffner Alumni
House. The Benefits Fair gives faculty and staff the opportunity
to meet and ask questions directly to the vendors who provide
benefits. This year the fair will include a treasure hunt, complete
with maps and a treasure chest.
The Benefits Fair marks the beginning of the Open
Enrollment period, which is the only time during the year that
employees can elect to enroll in or change benefits without a
qualifying event.
Please note that if you elect to make changes
to your benefits, the forms must be completed and returned to
the Division of Human Resources no later than Nov. 27. "If
you have questions about your benefits, the fair is a great time
to get answers," said Curtis Powell, vice president for human
resources. 11/11/02
