We’re excited to announce that two elected PSC leaders have been appointed to positions where they can help lead the national fight to protect adjunct and contingent academic workers.
James Davis (PSC President) has been appointed to the Workers Defense League (WDL) national board, joining past PSC President Barbara Bowen in that capacity. A nonprofit workers’ rights organization that specializes in helping people who have been denied unemployment insurance, the WDL has been a powerful resource for NYC workers, especially CUNY adjuncts.
Lynne Turner (PSC Vice President for Part-Time Personnel) has been appointed to the American Association of University Professors’ (AAUP) standing Committee on Contingency and the Profession. Under Turner’s leadership, the PSC joined with AAUP and Higher Education Labor United to organize last month’s forum, Combatting Contingency in a Time of Political Repression.
