NTT faculty zoom meeting, this Friday 3-5pm

7/7/2020

Dear NTT faculty colleagues,

Please join us for an NTT Faculty Meeting, this Friday, July 10, from 3-5pm, via Zoom (info to be sent later).

On our agenda will be the non-reappointment letters sent to over 300 of our UMB NTT colleagues, and our union response, as well as an update from the upcoming bargaining efforts with Administration (see here for more info).

We want to reiterate that all members who received non-reappointment letters should file for unemployment. We are re-attaching the document we sent last time with information taken from the MA department of unemployment website. We also encourage you to read the Mass Teacher Association’s guidelines to unemployment (info here and here). In addition, the Boston Globe is sponsoring a workshop on accessing unemployment benefits that may be of interest to you. The workshop will be tomorrow (Wednesday), from 2:30-3:30 (more info here).

We seek and we need your input and energy to protect and support all our members.

Please send other suggested agenda items to fsu@umb.edu and to joseph.ramsey@umb.edu

Signed,

Your NTT Faculty Staff Union Ex Com Representatives,

Tracy Brown, Academic Support & ESL

Caroline Coscia, Political Science, FSU Vice President

Monique Fuguet, Mathematics

Linda Liu, Sociology

Joe Ramsey, English and American Studies
