The university will work with benefits consultants to determine the effects the recently passed health care reform legislation would have on faculty and staff members' health insurance plans, a human resources official said.

It is too early to determine what effects, if any, the legislation will have on employees' plans, said Tracy Thompson, benefits manager for the human resources department. The bill was signed into law by President Barack Obama on Tuesday.
