    🗳️ On Feb 27, vote to end the gigification of teaching. Universities need a funding model that supports long-term, stable, and permanent positions for contract faculty. 📷 Email the party leaders now and ask them to commit to #Fairness4CF: buff.ly/4k2uXR

    We join @lufappul in solidarity by sending @RossRomanoSSM a letter expressing our concerns that Laurentian's Administration is moving forward with unilateral decisions. We urge the Minister to act ahead of today's LU Senate vote that will decide its future. #FundLU #onpoli

    "What is happening at Laurentian is the consequence of a complete erosion of collegial governance. Universities should not be run like businesses. Universities must be collegially governed." - @terezia_zoric, speaking at today's rally for #laurentianu

    Yesterday, @terezia_zoric wrote a letter to U of T President Meric Gertler inviting the University Administration to host an interactive Town Hall for UTFA members on the @CAUT_ACPPU censure. We look forward to the Administration's response. #onpse

    Every day we hear from UTFA members, staff, colleagues, & students who are deeply troubled by serious flaws in the UofT plan, but these concerns remain unacknowledged & unaddressed by UofT’s president & senior leadership. That must change. Share/sign:
