Dear NTT faculty colleagues,

Please join us for an NTT Faculty Meeting, tomorrow (Friday), July 10, from 3-5pm, via Zoom (contact the FSU office for Zoom meeting info).

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).

Colleagues,

Even though over 300 of our NTT colleagues have already been sent non-reappointment notices, we, the remaining faculty, can support our non-reappointed colleagues by pledging to resist larger class sizes and refusing to enroll students over course caps for the upcoming fall semester (see the contract language in Article 15.4 of the contract).
