Dear Colleague,

The State of Massachusetts has a $1 billion surplus and is taking one-time proposals.  Tell UMass to submit a proposal to relieve UMB of debt. 

Once you have called, please send an email to let us know that you called. You can also let us know if you got to talk to his staff or just left a message.

Call the UMass President’s Office at 617-287-7050.

Dear Colleague,

Bargaining our successor agreement will begin next Spring 2020.  The FSU is looking for members to be on the bargaining team and the bargaining support committee.  Although we will begin bargaining in Spring 2020, there is much to do in preparation for bargaining during the Fall 2019 semester, including constituting a bargaining team, a bargaining support committee, creating and administering a bargaining survey of our members, and soliciting feedback for bargaining.
