Dear Members,

Happy new academic year! The next few days are exciting as we reconnect with colleagues, meet new colleagues, and greet our students.   I hope you had a relaxing, restful, and productive period of non-responsibility. And for those new to UMB, we welcome you to campus and wish you a positive and productive semester ahead.

Your union is gearing up for a busy semester.  Many of our activities and actions include numerous ways for you to get involved.
