Our city provides a flat amount up to $2000 a year for ALL employees for ANY college course whether or not it is in one's discipline. This is a matter of institutional choice and budget. The reimbursement is set at the Texas State University rate of tuition per course, to encourage people to use TSU since they are in Round Rock. The campus can be brick and mortar or virtual. The rate of payment depends on grade received (A/B for master's only, A/B/C for undergraduate courses).
One employee, who works in the wastewater line area, will complete his BA next year and has been working on the side as a relief police officer. A full time officer in RR must now have his BA. So, he'll be able to go full time police if he wants to. Dale Dale Ricklefs, Library Director Round Rock Public Library 216 E.
