FSU Executive Committee Statement of Protest Regarding Administration Actions and Space Policy

10/31/2024

This week’s Point is written by Alex Mueller, Professor and Graduate Program Director in the Department of English.   The essay below addresses the Administration’s new policy for allocating Graduate Student Assistantships which creates an unnecessary layer of bureaucracy, ignores shared governance, and will be actively harmful to many graduate students and many graduate programs. The accompanying attachment is a “Resolution on Graduate Assistantship Allocation Policies” that will be considered at Faculty Council meeting on November 4^th.

Dear Colleagues,

Please join all the campus unions at the UMASS UNION UNITED Speak Out Tomorrow, October 31^st from 11:30 to 12:30 right outside of Wheatley.  Representatives for all the Campus Unions will speak to the pay/salary issues facing our members. 

We had intended to march to the FSU bargaining session after the Speak Out but just learned the Administration cancelled our bargaining session.  Even more reason to Speak Out!
