Email Action - UMass Coalition request

3/19/2020

Dear Colleagues,

The FSU Executive Committee is committed to the physical health, mental health and financial security of all UMass Boston students, faculty, and staff, as well as that of the larger UMass community. We believe UMass can and should be a leader in ensuring these values as we work remotely.  Thus far, while UMass students, faculty and librarians have been allowed to work remotely in the interest of public health, many staff have not been offered the same freedom and assurance.  They need our support.
