Specifically, our HR group has begun to realign facility directors/managers as admin track managers instead of research associates. So, I had a couple of questions: 1.) Are scientific core managers currently classed as admin/managerial staff at your universities? 75% of core directors/managers (approximately 40) are research faculty (not staff); the other 25% are staff 2.) If not, are there plans to transition to that? There are no plans to transition core directors/managers who are staff to research faculty.
