Best thing is the university matches your contribution. The worst thing is you can only change it once a year.

You have to choose between a defined benefit plan or defined contribution plan. I believe that private industry has better plans.

You can stay in TRS or opt into your own retirement plan when you get a full-time job.

They match 2 to 1, so no issues there. Plan is through TRS (Teacher's Retirement System) so statewide plan if moving from another State job
