CUNY Runs on Adjunct Labor!
CUNY relies on nearly 14,000 adjuncts to run, and adjuncts teach a majority of CUNY classes, but we are subjected to unfair, unequal treatment and too often forced to work without job security or healthcare. Our union is fighting to change that. The Committee for Adjuncts and Part-Timers (CAP) provides a central CUNY-wide organizing space for part-timers. We hold monthly meetings where information is shared about union-wide organizing and work issues specific to part-timers, and fight to improve our work lives. CAP is led by the Vice President of Part-Time Personnel.
