Former state university employee Theresa Halverson, who retired in August 2016, saved $35,904 toward a pension over 22 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Halverson would collect as much as $1.32 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.

The projection assumes Halverson received $27,737 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Halverson will have already received $56,306 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
