The
PSC/CUNY Delegate Assembly unanimously passed a resolution
supporting
CEW and adjunct demands for parity, seniority and job security.
We will
distribute letters to the Chancellor echoing these demands from
the point of
view of part time faculty, supportive full time faculty, and students.
We hope to
collect hundreds of letters to be delivered to the Chancellor's
office.
There
will be an informational picket (see
Poster) outside an Oct 27th meeting of the Board of Trustees.
In addition to local campus events at our l9 campuses (tabling,
walls of fame, meetings) we will have an all-day event at our Graduate
Center on Oct 31st (including lunch and a closing reception). The
morning will be a panel/workshops on preparing for applying for
the many new jobs advertised at CUNY (CV, cover letter, interviews);
the afternoon will be devoted to showing films about contingent
labor...The Origins of Equity Week: A Simple Matter of Justice,
Teachers on Wheels, and excerpts from the six-hour 2001 hearing
we held before the New York State Assembly Higher Education Committee
and Labor Committee on Adjunct Issues.
