The Next Voice You Hear

May or may not be either OUS or PERS explaining why it is that *most* OUS faculty and staff haven't even received IAP statements yet (at least as of yesterday). The problem, it seems, is that in the conversion to the "new" PERS system, OUS information didn't transfer properly. Suddenly, it seems, that PERS has no addresses for OUS members. Wonder if they lost all the account information too. This problem certainly hasn't been communicated very widely. Rumor has it that PSU's HR office didn't even know the problem existed; OSU has recently reported the problem. I'm sure that OUS and PERS will work this out, but there has been a stunning silence from both groups in informing all the affected parties at all OUS institutions of the problems.
