Some history from Barbara Hildner, president of NJCU AFT Local 1839: The New Jersey State Normal School for the Training of Teachers was founded in 1929. The Depression hit & thousands of teachers were fired, but the college never closed. It’s now known as NJCU. #FundNJCU @aftnj

NJCU also runs a special needs school, A. Harry Moore, for students and adults. As parent teacher leader Nicole Brown said, we must ensure that we #FundNJCU to guarantee these students meet their dreams too. NJCU AFT Local 1839 AFT New Jersey

NJ Assemblywoman Angela McKnight (@AswMcKnight): We all know there’s a shortage of nurses in our country. And NJCU has a strong nursing program. We need to #FundNJCU to teach the nurses of tomorrow, and we need to fund A. Harry Moore too. NJCU AFT Local 1839 @aftnj

.Andrés Acebo Andrés Acebo: NJCU graduates educated me, nursed me, & protected me. I’m the son of immigrants. Every day on campus I see my story reflected back at me. I will never have a greater privilege or honor than serving NJCU at this point. #FundNJCU NJCU AFT Local 1839 @aftnj

.Donna M.chiera: It’s not a coincidence that NJCU & William Patterson - 2 universities who serve minority communities - are going under. We can fund athletics but not colleges for our most vulnerable communities? We want a plan #FundNJCU with accountability. NJCU AFT Local 1839 AFT New Jersey

.Randi Weingarten 🇺🇸 🖇️👩‍🎓📚: The story of NJCU is the story of America rising. My cousins and I were the offspring of Ukrainian immigrants. We heard a lot about Jersey City, about Rutgers, Kean, William Patterson. These were schools of upward mobility. #FundNJCU NJCU AFT Local 1839 AFT New Jersey
