Right now ugly things are happening not only at Union County College but also all around New Jersey as well as throughout all universities in Higher Education.

It has not been an easy time for faculty or shared governance, but especially for adjunct faculty, who are suffering dire retaliation when they struggle to gain rights for fellow workers. As adjunct faculty, then, we should be putting pressure on our union representatives at @AFT and elsewhere.

Write to everyone, share these articles and links on your own networks, email listservs and social media. Pressure all you know.

Dr. Margaret McMenamin will get bent out of shape because if too many articles come out about malfeasance at her university, and these links become shared and shared again ad infinitum, she loses control. Therefore, we need to let her know she does NOT have the control she thinks she does!

Thank you, Vanessa Vaile, for getting this list together.

So let Dr. McMenamin know she does not live in a bubble… Please SHARE, and thank you!
