Welcome to the new Infonet.

Change in Health Care/Dental Deductions on Paystubs

Beginning with the January 14, 2022 paycheck, the amount that each employee contributes towards their health care and dental plans will be broken out separately on the paystubs.

The deduction for health care will be called “MEDICAL POP” and the deduction for dental will be called “DENTAL POP”. 

Prior to 2022, these contributions were combined in one deduction. This new breakout will give employees a better understanding of exactly how much they contribute towards each plan.

Please contact the Payroll Department at ext. 3120 with any questions.

Albert M. Snopek, Former Radiography Department Chair, Has Passed Away

Al Snopek, former Middlesex County College Radiography Department Chair and longtime professor, passed away on 1/1/22. He was surrounded by his family and went peacefully.

He cherished the 42 years that he worked at Middlesex County College and the relationships he fostered with his students, colleagues, and administration. Being a teacher and a mentor was his passion job and something he was very proud of. He always had his door open to lend a caring ear and a warm smile to a stressed-out student. His teaching methods were always innovative and everyone in the radiography program new what the highest level of teaching excellence looked like. He had a delivery that was both gentle and powerful at the same time. He was funny, kind, and had a heck of a sense of humor. His biggest gift was in the art of delivering knowledge to students in individually personalized methods. Every mind was important to him and he felt it worth his time to search for just the right keys to open that mind. He impacted countless lives.

Al’s last final selfless act was to donate his body to research to find a cure for Parkinson’s Disease. His family has requested that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research in his honor.

Rest In Peace Al.
