I have the privilege of being a member of several performers’ unions and I see first-hand the kind of protections they provide. I believe that it is imperative that we have these same protections here at UArts. Having a union to advocate for things like fair pay, reasonable workload and healthcare, will ensure that both full and part time faculty are able to do their jobs efficiently, effectively and equitably

UNITED ACADEMICS OF PHILADELPHIA

United Academics of Philadelphia, American Federation of Teachers (AFT) Local 9608 is a union dedicated to making higher education sustainable for faculty and staff working in Philadelphia-area colleges and universities. We are organizing to build collective bargaining power, community, and resources for vital yet underrepresented workers in Higher Education. Education is a public good, so we need to provide our students with a secure, respected faculty and staff. Together we can achieve what we cannot as individuals. Join us!
