A great deal of attention has been paid to the issues of compensation and working conditions for adjunct faculty on campuses across the U.S.
In a grassroots effort designed as an anonymous “call to action,” the first-ever National Adjunct Walkout Day has been planned for February 25, 2015. Contingent faculty — and other supporters — are being encouraged to participate on campuses throughout the U.S.
The movement is gaining momentum — and traction — on social media sites and in news media.What will this look like on your campus?
And, are you prepared to respond?
With no central organizing committee for National Adjunct Walkout Day, this event will look unique on every campus. Join us for a lively and informative webinar that will explore what your campus needs to know to prepare for and respond to National Adjunct Walkout Day.
