Dear PSC Members,

The PSC has reached an agreement with CUNY management to extend the deadline for notification of adjunct appointments for the fall semester to June 30, 2020. The agreement applies to non-teaching adjuncts and adjunct CLTs as well as to adjunct faculty.

The agreement also creates a process to enable the PSC and the University to meet before the June 30 deadline to address any instances of adjuncts who have been on health insurance through their CUNY employment in the current academic year and stand to lose eligibility for health insurance in the fall. The union will do everything we can to ensure that no adjunct loses health insurance eligibility during a pandemic. That has been—and remains—one of the PSC’s primary goals.

If you are an adjunct and have not already done so, please use this form to notify us of your current reappointment status.

The PSC encourages all adjuncts who are not on three-year appointments to apply for unemployment insurance regardless of your reappointment status. Click here for an FAQ. Adjuncts who are on three-year appointments should contact the Workers Defense League at (212) 627-1931 about their eligibility for unemployment insurance.
