I have fought the bi-weekly payroll where ever I have been, and have been
successful.  Too many annoyances, too many inconveniences.  It is difficult
to work with in the Grant world.  Give me the weekly and monthly payroll
anytime.

Wichita State University has recently adopted the bi-weekly payroll system
wherein the academic year is computed on 20 bi-weekly payroll periods and
the summer on 6 bi-weekly periods. In projecting ahead - this makes for
problems in paying faculty summer grant payroll because the academic year
is
figured on 40 weeks instead of the usual 39 weeks. Are there other
universities on bi-weekly payroll and are you having similar problems?
