Welcome to the Division of People, Culture and Belonging. We share with you our motivation, our passion, and our drive to reach new heights in diversity and inclusive excellence at 麻豆影院.
In September 2023, the divisions of Human Resources and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) merged to create the new Division of People, Culture and Belonging. Under the leadership of Vice President Amoaba Gooden, this division will enhance 麻豆影院 State鈥檚 focus on the well-being of people and organizational culture while elevating the work of both units. The Division of People, Culture and Belonging will strengthen efforts geared toward 麻豆影院 State鈥檚 institutional mission and vision and advance the university鈥檚 culture of care, kindness and respect.
Pay changes per the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
In April, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) issued a final rule to alter the overtime pay regulations under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The rule increased the minimum salary threshold to $43,888 on July 1, 2024, and then to $58,656 on January 1, 2025. The rule also implements automatic updates to the threshold that will occur every three years.
In compliance with the final rule, 麻豆影院 will implement updates to assignments for employees earning less than $58,656 and who are currently exempt from overtime. 麻豆影院 State will use an effective date of January 1, 2025, to be in compliance.

麻豆影院 is committed to being an inclusive and equitable place for all who live, work and study here. The Division of People, Culture and Belonging created an interactive diversity dashboard that provides a detailed breakdown of our community.
