Pension System
As of 2012, the SUNY police is the only state police agency that does not participate in the police and fireman's pension system. As the force did not exist when the pension system was established for the other groups, SUNY officers remain outside the system. The SUNY police do not receive extra pay for nighttime shifts, a benefit granted to others state employees.

Famous quotes containing the words pension and/or system:
“It is a sort of ranger service. Arnold’s expedition is a daily experience with these settlers. They can prove that they were out at almost any time; and I think that all the first generation of them deserve a pension more than any that went to the Mexican war.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We recognize caste in dogs because we rank ourselves by the familiar dog system, a ladderlike social arrangement wherein one individual outranks all others, the next outranks all but the first, and so on down the hierarchy. But the cat system is more like a wheel, with a high-ranking cat at the hub and the others arranged around the rim, all reluctantly acknowledging the superiority of the despot but not necessarily measuring themselves against one another.”
—Elizabeth Marshall Thomas. “Strong and Sensitive Cats,” Atlantic Monthly (July 1994)
