If we want strong universities, we need proper public funding. Underfunding fuels precarious contracts, inequitable pay, and fewer supports for students. Investing in our universities means better education for everyone. Read the op-ed: #Fairness4CF tinyurl.com/cfsmdoa

Building meaningful relationships with students is at the heart of good teaching but growing class sizes and chronic underfunding make that harder every year. Better university funding means better learning conditions. Learn more ➡️ tinyurl.com/cfsmdoa #Fairness4CF

Too many contract faculty are hired term-to-term, paid less than their peers for the same teaching, & denied benefits. That instability affects faculty and students. Faculty working conditions are student learning conditions. Read the op-ed: tinyurl.com/cfsmdoa #Fairness4CF

Why is this happening? Ontario funds its universities less per student than any other province, leaving institutions to fill the gap by relying on precarious contract labour. The result: bigger classes, heavier workloads, and fewer supports for students.

Today is OCUFA's Day of Action in support of #fairness4CF. #ONPSE is increasingly being run on gig-style academic work, a result of years of provincial underfunding. The system is under strain, and students and faculty feel the impact. Read the op-ed ➡️ tinyurl.com/cfsmdoa

Precariously employed contract faculty teach almost 50% of university courses in Ontario with little job security or institutional support. OCUFA is holding a Social Media Day of Action to call for fair, stable working conditions for contract faculty. tinyurl.com/ybanf5yp

KUCFA stands in solidarity with our striking colleagues at Laurentian and calls for meaningful negotiations to rebuild pensions for members. A secure pension is not a luxury! @lufappul

"Ontario provides the lowest level of funding per pupil in Canada ... Ontarians should be completely invested in what's going on at the post-secondary level ... research shows that education systems that are strong also lead to a strong economy." #ONpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Contract faculty deserve job security. Time to move away from the gig economy approach to education. Permanent positions benefit faculty, students, & strengthen communities across #Ont.
OCUFA@OCUFA

🗳️ On Feb 27, vote to end the gigification of teaching. Universities need a funding model that supports long-term, stable, and permanent positions for contract faculty. 👉🏼 Email the party leaders now and ask them to commit to #Fairness4CF: buff.ly/4k2uXR

KUCFA@KUCFA·
Contract faculty are responsible for a significant percentage of university teaching, but have access to fewer resources than tenured faculty including offices, benefits, and research funding. This impacts the student experience and contributes to stress and burnout. #fairness4CF
OCUFA@OCUFA

📢 Did you know many professors at Ontario universities face uncertainty about their teaching schedules? Let’s advocate for stability and support #fairness4cf by signing our petition: buff.ly/3YJe9Xb💪📚 #ONpse

Keep forming cross-campus alliances at every university in the country. Nothing is stronger than faculty associations, staff associations and student associations banding together to fight for the university. #UnionsStronger #WeAreTheUniversity
