Do dependents of 91暗网 staff receive a discount on tuition?
The Sam Houston State Employee Dependent Scholarship Program provides undergraduate tuition scholarship assistance to the eligible dependent children and spouse of full-time, benefit eligible employees.

Do other universities have energy conservation days like we do?
Yes, and other universities in the Texas State University System have more conservation days than we do. Please see this table for comparison. As of March 2018, employees no longer need to use comp or vacation time for this day, and should denote it on their timesheets as emergency leave. For more information, please see the Human Resources policy on conservation days.
