Inside UMB-FSU

Dear Colleagues:

We hope you had a great spring break.  The FSU has been busy.  Here’s the news:

On March 8, 2017, the Faculty Staff Union Executive Committee formally endorsed the following statement:

Faculty of the University of Massachusetts Boston stand in solidarity with our students, condemning the cowardly propaganda actions by hate groups toward UMass Boston, its students, and its campus.

Dear Colleague,

Mark your calendar for these important dates. Meetings are open to union members in good standing only (if you are an agency fee payer and wish to change your status or you have not yet joined but wish to do so, contact the FSU).

► FSU Annual Meeting:  Wednesday, April 26, 2 pm Crossley Lounge W 6 47.  Please join us!

Dear Colleague,

Voting closed this morning and the election results are in.  

Congratulations to your new FSU Executive Committee members:

Vice President:                                   John Hess

Tenured Faculty Representatives:      Steve Striffler and Karen Suyemoto

Pre-Tenured Representative:             Jason Rodriquez

Non-Tenured  Representatives:         Joe Ramsey and Peggy Walsh
