PSC staff and officers have been working remotely since March to help slow the spread of the pandemic coronavirus COVID-19 and safeguard the health of our employees and members. The office at 61 Broadway will be closed until public health experts indicate a reduced need for social distancing measures. But we are here for you! Help us direct your inquiries to the right department by submitting them here on the Contact Us form.
In Memoriam
CUNY has lost more faculty and staff in the pandemic than any other university in the U.S. Most of those lost have been PSC members. Visit the In Memoriam page, which lists the names of those members known to have died due to the coronavirus.
Save Lives, Save Jobs, Save CUNY
The PSC is engaged in an all-out struggle for the safety and health of our members during the coronavirus pandemic. We are fighting for every job, campaigning to restore the jobs and health insurance of laid-off adjuncts and to win the public funding and progressive tax policies needed to save CUNY during the Coronavirus Recession. Visit the Save Lives, Save Jobs, Save CUNY campaign page for actions, resources and a timeline of events and announcements going back to March 2020. Press coverage of the campaign and member-written op-eds about CUNY’s role in the City’s recovery are posted on the PSC in the News page. Take good care of yourselves, and take care of each other. That’s what unions do.
