Legislative Liaison Report: All eyes on state budget

By Michael Mullins
UEA-D Legislative Liaison

Colleagues!

I hope as your semester winds down you are able to reflect on the struggles made across our campus this year and the accomplishments we've made on behalf of our faculty, students and generally the campus and community. Without your input and energy UEA would not be able to represent you collectively. Thanks for all you do.

Now, turning to one of the most pressing issues we face: our budget.

UEA-D pays tribute to retiring faculty

The University Education Association-Duluth would like to recognize the union faculty who will be retiring at the end of this academic year. Their contribution to our university in their research, teaching and service sets a standard we all can only hope to aspire to. We thank them for their membership in our union. We wish them fullfilling retirements.

Welcome

Welcome to the website for the Rhode Island College Adjunct Faculty Chapter of the American Federation of Teachers. We hope these pages will give you a good sense of who we are and how we support part-time faculty at RIC.
