Life Annuities or life insurance either or both may be purchased by members of the faculties from the Teachers Insurance and Annuity As- sociation of America and premiums for either life Annuity or life Insur- ance, or both, may be deducated at the written request of the policy- holder from the monthly payroll of the University, and in such cases will be remitted directly by the Univer- sity, on the monthly basis. The secretary's office has on file blank applications for annuity policies, or life insurance policies, and rate books, for the convenience of members of the University staff desiring to make use of them. 2. The Regents at their meeting of January, 1919 agreed that any mem- ber of the Faculties entering the serv- ice of the University since Nov. 17, 1915, may purchase an Annuity from the above-named Association, toward the cost of which the Regents would make an equal contribution up to five per cent of his annual salary not in excess of $5,000, thus, within the limit of five per cent of the salary, doubling the amount of the Annuity purchased. 3. The purchase of an Annuity under the conditions mentioned in (2) above is made a condition of em- ployment in the case of all members of the Faculties, except instructors, whose term of Faculty service does not antedate the University year. 1919-1920. With instructors of less than three years' standing the pur- chase of an Annuity is optional 4. Persons who have become mem- bers of the faculties since Nov. 17, 1915 and previous to the year 1919- 1920 have the option of purchasing annuities under the University's con- tributory plan. 5. Any person in the employ of the University may at his own cost pur- chase annuities from the association or any of the class of faculty mem- bers mentioned above -may purchase annuities at his own cost in addition to those mentioned above. The Uni- versity itself, however, will contribute to the expense of such purchase of annuities only as indicated i sections 2, 3 and 4 above. * 6. Any person in the employ of the University, either as a faculty mem- ber or otherwise, unless debarred by his medical examination may, at his own expense, purchase life insurance from the Teachers Insurance and An- nuity Association at its rate. All life insurance premiums are borne by the individual himself. The University makes no contribution toward life insurance and has nothing to do with the life insurance feature except that it will if desired by the insured, de- duct premiums monthly and remit the same to the association. 7. The University accounting of- fices will as a matter of hccommoda- tion to members of the faculties or employes of the University, who de- sire to pay either annuity premiums or insurance premiums monthly, de- duct such premiums from the pay- roll in monthly installments. In the case of the so-called "academic roll" the premium payments for the months of July, August, September, and October will be deducted from the double payroll of June 30. While the accounting offices do not solicit this work, still it will be cheerfully assumed where desired. 8. The University has no ar- rangements with any insurance or- ganization except the Teachers .n- surance and Annuity Association of America and contributions will not be made by the University nor can premium payments be deducted ex- cept in the case of annuity or insur- ance policies of this association. 9. The general administration of the annuity and insurance business has been placed in the hands of Sec- retary of the University by the Re- gents.
