Dear Colleagues, 

After months of getting very little of substance from the Admin bargaining team, they have summarily rejected virtually all our proposals. We urge as many members as possible to show up before the next bargaining session on Wednesday, March 5 – this will take place right outside ISC 2003 from 9:15 – 9:45. We need you to make your voices heard.  Coffee and snacks provided!  Read on.

This week’s Point was written by Steve Striffler, a professor in Labor Studies.

The FSU’s core bargaining team has proposed abolishing the Associate Lecturer category.   Wait?  What?   Why?  What will happen to the approximately 200 Associate Lecturers currently teaching on campus?  They will get a promotion to Lecturer! -- a slightly less exploited category of NTT faculty.
