The salary floor will be $5500 / per class in 2023 This depresses EVERYONE's wages What would administrators’ salaries be like if "ADJUNCT" was added to their title? @ChancellorCUNY @CUNY should stop the 'economic bullying' and pay part-time faculty a fair wage @PSC_CUNY

Today is the 115th anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire. The tragedy killed 146 workers, shocking the nation and galvanizing the labor movement. Because of the event, many of the workplace safety and health protections workers enjoy today were codified into law.

We join @PSC_CUNY and @AAUP in their support of the faculty at St. John University who are currently embroiled in a fight for a fair contract after the union received notice that admin would no longer recognize faculty unions. Sign their petition: actionnetwork.org/forms/hands-of…

The unionized staff, adjunct faculty and graduate workers at the new school have invoked their right to collective action against the administration's austerity.

Ugh! @Baruch_College hasn't recovered from the recent "significant Cyber incident." No internet & important software is failing during finals. @CUNY, fix it ASAP! @ChancellorCUNY, demand the increased capital/operating $ we need to educate students without interruption.
