The University of Waterloo has embarked on an exciting initiative to shape the future of our campus. Now is your opportunity to share your experience and wisdom.  

Convocation is a special time for the University of Waterloo community as we celebrate our graduates’ achievements and welcome their families and supporters to campus. From Tuesday, June 10 to Saturday, June 14, we will host 14 ceremonies across all six faculties.

As a valued retiree, we invite you to take part in the celebrations by volunteering. Your familiarity with the University is incredibly helpful in guiding guests and ensuring a welcoming experience for all.

As most retirees will know, our pensions are indexed to inflation and increase each year.  Inflation indexing for pensions changed on January 1, 2014, so the inflation adjustment is computed separately for pension earned before that point and pension earned later.  For this May 1, for most pensioners, pension earned before January 1, 2014 will increase by 3.28% and pension earned later will increase by 1.89%.  For an explanation of the way these percentages were computed and for special considerations affecting those who retired in the last three years, please read on.
