Please see the following from UUP Statewide President, Mr. Fred Kowal.
UUP Central is scheduling a series of tele-town halls, which will include a brief presentation on the overall economic perspective of where we are as a state and as a nation, as well as an overview on New York State and national public higher education funding trends. The presentation is open to our members for a solution-driven discussion.
In Solidarity,

Tele-Town Halls
Nothing is more important than carrying the voices of our membership forward in this difficult time. Our advocacy efforts are multiple and on-going, and I extend a heartfelt thank you to the dedicated members who have sent letters, made phone calls and joined our social media campaign to protect SUNY and the work UUP does.
We will always be stronger when we are engaging one another and working from the grassroots. In this vein, we are scheduling a series of tele-town halls, which will include a brief presentation on the overall economic perspective of where we are as a state and as a nation, as well as an overview on New York State and national public higher education funding trends. The presentation will then be opened up to our members for a solution-driven discussion. If there is a “best” way to face these unprecedented times, I am certain that together UUP members can and will develop that strategic plan.
The tele-town halls will take place on the following days:
- May 7, 2020 at 11:00 AM
- May 13, 2020 at 3:00 PM
- May 19, 2020 at 6:30 PM
- May 21, 2020 at 11:00 AM
In order to hear from as many members as possible, we are asking participants to choose just one date to join in on the conversation. To participate, please register here:
Please follow the registration link and sign-up to attend one of these events. Information on how to log-in to the event will be sent the week of the tele-town hall. Please share information about the tele-town halls as widely as possible.
Your entire statewide team is eager to hear from you!
In solidarity,
Fred
