Dear FSU member,

The Massachusetts Teachers Association (MTA) is holding an all higher education member meeting on Tuesday September 15 4:30 -6:00PM for the purpose of discussing actions taking place across all Massachusetts public higher education campuses - layoffs, furloughs, eliminations of programs, and health and safety issues.

Dear FSU Members,

Happy Labor Day.   Attached is a zoom background for your use -- courtesy of the MTA...with some catchy slogans about the current campaign to fund higher ed, stop the layoffs/furloughs, and keep our campuses safe.  Enjoy!

 [P]rudence suggests that our campus will be better off if we maintain our current practice of remote learning and focus all of our attention in the coming months on ensuring that we provide the highest quality and most engaging remote experience possible when classes begin for the fall semester.
