Did you mean
"can" above rather than
"can't"?
95, yes you are correct in what you state above, but that is not what you were wrong about. You said Anne had the choice between PERS2 and TIAA. No, she did not, as she was hired as A/P. Your own link agrees with me.
"For Faculty and AP hired prior to July 1, 2011, the retirement plan offered was the Washington State University Retirement Plan (WSURP)."
Now, you are correct that NEW A/P's can choose PERS3 (which is NOT PERS2), and which is a shit option. Which has nothing to do with Anne in any event. Nor does your premise (which I know is or was correct because I was given that choice myself) that existing PERS2 members can stay or go to TIAA when they go A/P. She never was PERS2.
So, there is no indignity here. Your being wrong about one thing, then trying to defend your wrongness by quoting something completely different, may brain twist lesser minds (like Gibby's), but can't fool the Mighty Loyal One. I am the MOST knowledgeable poster in any topic that I care to provide information on. Opinions? That is different. Although mine opinions are almost always better than anyone else's. But that is another discussion.
Now go salve your wounds and come back later.
