The Rutgers AAUP/AFT chapters called on @CUNY leadership to immediately reinstate the four adjuncts who were fired for their pro-Palestine activism, and encouraged other faculty unions and academic associations to stand together in the face of these attacks

[PSC/CUNY @PSC_CUNY]

Thank you to our allies at @ruaaup and @ruaaup_ptl for issuing a powerful letter to @CUNY administrators in solidarity with the Fired Four, calling their dismissal "a grave violation of academic freedom and a dangerous encroachment on faculty governance".

We couldn't be more proud to have endorsed @ZohranKMamdani. Here he is at this evening’s event with @BernieSanders, shouting out the PSC and standing up for @BklynCollege411 faculty who have been fired and investigated for speaking out in support of Palestinian human rights.

@celinasu Congratulations!! Looking forward to reading it!

“I’m Jewish. I’m not engaged in antisemitic acts. I’m engaged in protest against a genocide. I think it’s disgusting that anyone would be fired for being on the side of life" #BCFired4 https://t.co/7igjaSTB1q

On Tuesday, August 12th, PSC President James Davis sent a letter to @ChancellorCUNY demanding on-time pay for Adjuncts ahead of the Fall semester.

“The expectation that adjuncts simply wait to be compensated is unacceptable.”

.@CUNY students, alums, faculty, staff, community members - please take a minute and tell President Anderson @BklynCollege411, @ChancellorCUNY and CUNY Board of Trustees to do the right thing - reinstate the #BCFired4!

[PSC/CUNY @PSC_CUNY]

4/4
As contingent workers, adjunct faculty are often first to be targeted-but they will not be the last. By firing these 4 adjuncts, CUNY is not just targeting individuals, but is sending a clear message to all that dissent & academic freedom have no place at CUNY #BCFired4

[pscbrooklyn @pscbrooklyn]

1/4 We condemn the recent non-reappointment of three CUNY adjunct faculty members and termination of another. These dismissals, carried out in direct contradiction to unanimous departmental recommendations and without any due process or explanation

#BCFired4 #PSC

3/4
but also violates widely accepted standards in higher education.

We call on all PSC-CUNY members, CUNY students and alumni, and allies, to stand with the fired four. Their silencing is a direct attack on all of us. #BCFired4

If CUNY has been projecting a deficit since 2020, then why did CUNY Central administrators give themselves such big raises in Fall 2022?

[Angela M. Vázquez made 🦠their whole personality @AngelaMSWinCA]

“the psychological toll of trying to keep ourselves safe with no institutional support, and, in fact, quite a bit of institutional propaganda that we are being hysterical, is an ongoing source of trauma. It feels like I’m screaming into the void.”

[CUNY Rising Alliance @CUNYRising]

“CUNY has announced plans to slash the budgets of nine #CUNY colleges… These colleges have the greatest deficits thanks to historic underfunding from the state and city.”

Yesterday the Queens College #CUNY Provost instructed all chairs to fire 26 people in substitute lines.

26 people have lost salaries & possibly health insurance 15 days before the start of the semester!
