PSC-CUNY | A Forceful Advocate

Update 28

At the session, the PSC agreed to the temporary extension of two expiring contract pilot programs in exchange for CUNY’s agreement to develop proposals that address job insecurity and benefits inequities for CLIP and CUNY Start teachers. Other topics addressed in the session included annual leave time, pay increases with promotion or reclassification, CLT promotions, equity for adjuncts teaching jumbo courses, and union representation of SEEK and College Discovery directors.

Making the REPAIR Act come to life

Last year, Senator John Liu and Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani introduced new legislation that would curtail tax protections for the city’s richest universities. If enacted, this plan could funnel more than $300 million into CUNY, which could be used for hiring more faculty and staff and fixing the crumbling infrastructure at the city’s public campuses.
