Wednesday, June 19th, NTFC and its Allies are calling the office of Provost Andreas Cangellaris to demand a first-year 3% merit raise for our members. You can tell us if you are going to call by signing up for our Facebook Event!

OFFICE OF THE PROVOST PHONE: 217-333-6677

Because of a likely 1% increase in health insurance costs, and a definite 2% increase in cost of living, many NTFC members would effectively receive a pay cut without this first-year 3% merit salary increase.

Join us in calling the Provost and telling him our members deserve 3%!

The Non-Tenure Faculty Coalition will be tabling at Urbana’s Market at the Square Saturday mornings this summer! You can stop by and say hello, or, if you are an NTFC member, you can join us by signing up here.

Through the organic interactions that tabling fosters, we are excited to increase our union’s visibility in the community and spread the word about the power of collective organizing. As an added bonus, the collective struggle to keep the tent and our tabling supplies from taking off in Urbana’s fierce prairie winds will help forge even stronger bonds of solidarity between our members!

May 17th marked the end of Leslie Thomas’s official role as Operations Coordinator for NTFC. We say ‘official’ because her impact will long continue. NTFC is so grateful for the energy, optimism, and expertise she brought to her role. We are a stronger union for her efforts. 

We wish Leslie the absolute best as she and her family begin the next part of their lives, and we hope she knows she will always have a union home with NTFC. #UnionStrong #UnionProud
