Dear UA-UNM Colleagues,
This is the week! Our Fall General Membership Meeting is this Thursday, October 16 at 5:00pm in the PAIS Building (starting with dinner in the lobby), followed by a Happy Hour from 7:00-8:00pm at Flock of Moons (only 1 block away)! Members can attend face-to-face or online. RSVP here to save your spot and to receive the Zoom link.
The General Membership Meeting is our opportunity to come together to share updates and ideas as a full faculty and it only happens once per semester. The meeting will include updates from our President, Treasurer, Organizing Committee, and Bargaining Committee. After that we will openly discuss the ongoing attacks on higher education and unions, and what you can do about it. UA-UNM’s International Legal Defense Fund happened because of ideas and concerns brought by you and your colleagues to the last GMM. Your voice matters!
As always, remember to encourage your colleagues to join UA-UNM here and keep reading for a list of upcoming UA-UNM events.
In Solidarity,
United Academics of UNM
