\nThis working group is challenged with the task of coming up with recommendations for the Union that can be incorporated into\u00a0the bargaining agreement. We want the university to know this is an issue on campus and we will fight against degrading and demoralizing working conditions. Also, we need to find ways to spread the word that workers do not have to put up with micro aggressions, and we\u2019re here to help.
\nContact: Elizabeth Scarbrough,\u00a0lizscar@gmail.com<\/a>\u00a0or respond to this email for more information.<\/p>\n
