FSU EX COM E-VOTE 4/26/16

The FSU Ex Com was asked to vote on the following on 4/25/16. The FSU Executive Committee did not vote to co-sponsor the FSJP CIT-Sponsored forum. The votes were 6 in favor; 1 opposed; 6 members did not vote.

Hi Folks,

Marlene wanted to pass this on to you all for a vote.

The recently formed group, Faculty and Staff for Justice in Palestine (FSJP), proudly the largest organization of this nature in the U.S., organized a CIT-sponsored forum, entitled, “Building Solidarity Across Struggles: Liberation in the Classroom and Beyond.” The event will feature our very great Faculty Barbara Lewis and Rajini Srikanth, and we were also able to get an amazing social activist all the way from New York, Bina Ahmad.

 The forum is scheduled on May 3rd, 2:30-4:00pm at the first floor of the ISC, Room 1400. 

 We are hoping that the FSU Executive Committee would be interested in co-sponsoring this event, and publicizing it among the members.

 A poster of the event is attached. Of course, we would add the name of the FSU to the flyer should you decide to co-sponsor with us.
