Does the institution offer a socially responsible investment option for retirement plans?:
Yes
None
A brief description of the socially responsible investment option for retirement plans:
Full-time and part-time* Faculty and Staff are eligible to participate in one of two retirement plans: State Employees Retirement System (SERS) or Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association/College Retirement Equities Fund (TIAA–CREF).
If the employee selects TIAA-CREF, they can select to invest in that organization's Social Choice Equity (TICRX) mutual fund. This fund seeks a favorable long-term rate of return that tracks the investment performance of the U.S. stock market while giving special consideration to certain social criteria.
*Part-time Faculty and Staff are eligible to participate in one of the two retirement plans once they have worked 750 hours in a given calendar year.
