Campus Equity Week is a national week of action to bring attention to the issues and concerns of part-time and full-time contingent employees.

Below are some of the contingent-specific gains from our 2022-2026 contract:

• Per the contract the following minimums are in place for adjuncts at comprehensive campuses, based on a 3-credit course (prorated). Fall 2023: $3,500, Fall 2024: $4,000, Fall 2025: $4,500, Fall 2026: $5,500
• Part-time academics who teach courses on multiple state-operated SUNY campuses can aggregate course-load to meet eligibility requirements for healthcare coverage.
• After three years or six semesters of continuous employment, part-time employees (academics and professionals) will be granted one-year term-appointments.
• After seven years of continuous appointment, full time qualified academic rank employees (e.g., Lecturers, Clinical Faculty, Research Faculty) at non-HSC campuses will be granted three-year term appointments

Did You Know?

1 in 5 professional employees and 3 in 5 academics are contingent?

2 in 5 part-time adjuncts and lecturers have worked in the same SUNY title for more than five years?

1 in 4 part-time, temporary professionals have worked in the same SUNY title for more than four years?

More than 1/3 of the faculty at the majority of SUNY’s state-operated campuses are part time?

1/2 of all full-time and part-time faculty have no path to permanency?

THANK YOU to our contingent members and non-members!
