More to the point construction dollars come from different appropriations, and in fact in the past have paid for substantial amounts of construction costs.

I recently retired as a PERA employee. I never made anywhere near what is being reported in this article. My years in PERA were 13 and so my retirement salary is nowhere near 50%. Also I waited until I was after 70 to retire! I did not receive an increase in pay in the last four years I was employed. That said, I am aware of the 110 days or the recently 140 days bring them back. My understanding of how this works (or should work) is that the retired employee if hired to do their previous job is paid their old daily rate, regardless of how many hours they work. When calculating 'days worked', if one works four or more hours, that is considered a day. Otherwise one counts hours worked, with 720 hours as a limit in a calendar year. And the pay would be the old hourly rate. I am not saying paying this hourly rate is the way to go, since the institution is not getting what they got from the employee when he/she was full time.
However, now retired I wanted to continue teaching part time. My hourly pay for teaching is ridiculously low, but that's fine with me. I took the job because I love to teach and have the time to do it. But, I am having PERA deducted from y pay, that I won't see again. Again, I agreed to this so I have no complaint, My complaint concerns those employees who artificially inflated their salaries at the end of their work life to benefit from the highest 4 year average.
It was common practice several years ago for employees to 'buy years of employment'. I know of several who took out loans or second mortgages to pay for the years and then after retiring took advantage of the 110 days option to pay off those loans.
Several bloggers are correct. These options of working 110 or 140 days never are offered to lower paid employees. It seems as if the policy makers always benefit themselves, and do manage to keep it quiet. BTW, CU is not the only institution that has this practice. There are other institutions where this occurs in school districts and community colleges.

On a bike ride on coal creek trail about two months ago, came across three coyotes near the trail. Two were young and ran away when they saw me. However, "mom" was lurking in the brush and just stayed there about 25 yards from the trail probably waiting for some unexpected dog off leash.
I live in NW Lafayette. Last week as I pulled into our complex' parking lot, one was walking through the parking lot. Sunday there was one in the parking lot near 95th and South Boulder road.
That makes 5 sightings this year in daylight.

You are an inconsiderate, self serving idiot. If they don't call, people complain , when they, they still do.
Guess what? Go back to bed you have all day to sleep.
