Student workers and temporary employees at Northern Arizona University will soon be getting a raise. But they’ll still be making $2 below Flagstaff’s minimum wage.

The Arizona Daily Sun reported that the pay for these workers will be increased by the end of October.

NAU President Rita Cheng said in a statement that the lowest wages for these workers will be raised to $8.50 an hour, up from $8.05. Cheng said about a quarter of student workers will see a pay bump.

In Flagstaff, the minimum wage is $10.50 and hour, and Arizona’s is $10. But state and federal workers are exempt local wage laws.
