Dear Colleague,

I hope you are safe and well given the coronavirus pandemic.  Here is an update. 

►The financial outlook for UMB:  Many people are asking about budget cuts.  If these occur, this will be from cuts from the state budget and/or declining enrollments.  The university does not have a picture of enrollments for the fall yet.

Dear FSU Members,

We write with an update about COVID-19 impact bargaining with the Administration.  At our meeting on April 8^th we reached tentative agreement on the FSU-specific portion of the larger union-coalition proposal (see attached).  This will not become formal or official until we complete bargaining the larger portion of the proposal that we share with the other unions on campus.  It’s all part of a single proposal.

Dear FSU Members,

We write with an update about COVID-19 impact bargaining with the Administration. Along with the other campus unions, and based on your input, we developed the set of proposals we sent to you last week. The administration refused to negotiate with the campus unions together, and therefore the FSU Core Bargaining Team met separately with the administration on Tuesday, March 31st and Thursday, March 2nd.  We only discussed the FSU-specific proposals in the larger document (but will eventually discuss the larger, shared, proposals).

Dear Colleague,

I hope you are staying safe and are well during these difficult times.  Here is an update on what is going on.
