*As of May 5, 2025, Montclair State University will no longer issue annual reappointment notices to managerial-level employees. Managerial employees will continue on an at-will basis, meaning that either the University or the employee may end the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause. Reappointment language should not be included in written performance evaluations and will be sent back for revision.
