"This is in keeping with the trend to one, eliminate introduction to sociology as a potential general ed class for students, and two, to use this process as a soapbox to speak out against sociology as a discipline." - UFF President, Dr. Robert Cassanello naplesnews.com/story/news/st…

Higher education is a public good, not a political football. It's time to make our voices heard and demand our elected officials protect this vital institution. Add your voice to ours! Tell Congress to invest in our future. @aftunion @aaupnational

Meet Davina, a Sr. Custodian at UCLA. She commutes 120 miles every day because she can't afford to live near the campus where she works. #WhyWeFIght #afscme3299 #ucworker #housingassistance #UCLA #universityofcalifornia #losangeles #faircontractnow #housing

Appalling. AAUP will continue to fight against censorship and discrimination in higher education.
The Texas Tech system will prohibit Masters and PhD students from earning degrees with theses or dissertations on sexual orientation or gender identity. A blatantly unconstitutional attack on academic freedom.

(1/5) The fight for the eight hour work day: how May Day came to be known globally as International Workers’ Day. In 1886, workers organized the first multi-city (Chicago, Cincinnati, and Milwaukee) general strike for the eight hour work day.

We're tired of UC's disrespect. Going on an open ended strike, in this economy, is not an easy decision but we know it's a sacrifice we must take to push for a better UC! From UCSD to UCD, Sterile Processing Techs, Pharmacy Techs, Nutrition workers, EVS, we are ready to SHUT IT DOWN! Our families, patients, and students deserve better!

THURS. @ 1PM—Join us to call on NYU to extend vital New York State Paid Family Leave benefits to Adjunct Faculty! What we're demanding is not a financial burden on NYU. What w're calling for is decency and respect for the dedicated faculty who teach a plurality of NYU classes.

“UC’s lowest paid frontline workers have been priced out of the communities where they live and UC has not only refused to bargain over solutions, they have illegally sidestepped bargaining altogether to make our affordability crisis worse,” said Kathryn Lybarger, the union’s executive vice president, in the press release.
