Campus Equity Week: Coming to a campus near you

Read UUP’s Position Statement on Contingent Employment

Thousands of academic and professional contingent employees across the nation have no job security and work for meager wages.

To support contingents in their struggle, UUP is once again sponsoring Campus Equity Week, a national week of action focusing on unfair working conditions for contingent employees. Other sponsors include the NEA, SEIU and New Faculty Majority.

Across the state, UUP chapters will be hosting CEW activities such as informational tables, petition drives and community forums. Cortland, New Paltz, Oswego and Plattsburgh are among the chapters taking part in CEW events. Please contact specific chapters for more information.

UUP’s Executive Board adopted a union position statement on contingent employment in July. You can read that statement here.
