"Predicting “deficit budgets on the horizon” turns out to be a time-honored practice at Rutgers University.

.Rutgers University. Yesterday leadership of Rutgers AAUP-AFT Academic Worker Union voted to begin a strike vote on 2/28.

Good morning Rutgers University, we are 263 days without a contract, and we have a message for you if you're driving into the College Ave campus – #FairContractNow

ICYMI, here is our leadership's response to Holloway's misleading email to the Rutgers community on Tuesday afternoon. In the words of MLK: "We aren’t going to let any injunction turn us around. We are going on." Rutgers Adjunct Faculty Union Read more here: rutgersaaup.org/president-holl…
