Dear FSU Activist,

FSU President Marlene Kim’s remarks to the Board of Trustees, UMass Lowell, September 19, 2018. 

I am the President of the Faculty Staff Union at UMass Boston.  I broke my leg this past weekend, so I wasn’t going to address you today.  But I decided to appear because I wanted to tell you that UMass Boston is broken.  We’ve been appearing at Board of Trustees meetings for over two years to tell you that it is broken, but we have received few resources and little help.
