Rutgers professors say they were shortchanged in salary equity adjustments, especially those who work in Camden

Rutgers’ faculty union, which has been pushing for changes since New Jersey’s pay equity law went into effect in 2018, said the salary adjustments shortchanged professors by at least $750,000.

Haydee Herrera-Guzman, associate professor of mathematics at Rutgers-Camden, is one of five faculty members who filed a lawsuit a year ago against Rutgers over pay inequities. She was offered a salary bump this week, but it doesn't come close to giving her equity, she said.
