How often does admin say “we’re a tuition-driven university”? Now the univ’s made-up policy on intersession teaching has cost the univ a LOT of revenue & will cost them even more. It’s just 1 of the #arbitration cases, & it’s affecting morale & the Univ’s bottom line.

[scrantonfac @scrantonfac]

Bro @KenHomanSJ or any other #labor #union experts, do you have any idea how much it costs a #university to hire a high-powered #Philadelphia attorney to fight two #arbitration cases? Asking for a friend! #solidarity

Hey Scranton alumni, as you gear up for #reUNION weekend please consider letting the administration know that you support a fair contract for faculty.

Another Friday without a tentative agreement on our next contract means another #FACFriday in solidarity as the @scrantonfac table team continues to negotiate on our behalf. #UnionStrong

#FACFriday The amazing research that our students produce in the Biology labs quite simply wouldn't be possible without the hard work and guidance of these two superstars. Thanks for the support! #faircontractnow

[scrantonfac @scrantonfac]

It's the first FAC Friday, members! Be like @donnarosemary and be sure to wear your t-shirts today!

Would you look at that. Wages up 5.6% over 12 months. Ain't that something. https://t.co/JWcjaRRnu9

We loved hearing about student projects across the curriculum!

[scrantonfac @scrantonfac]

FAC members attended the Celebration of Student Scholarship. We wore t-shirts & buttons to raise awareness of the impact of faculty working conditions on student success. #scrantonacademics #universityofscranton #scrantonfaculty #ourworkingconditionsarestudentlearningconditions

#TBT The 2012 Just the FACs event! FAC boycotted the Univ.'s Faculty Appreciation Dinner in 2012 because of the state of negotiations. Maybe it should really be: #TBT state of faculty contract negotiations! #FACisforSolidarity #FACisforFamilies #FACisforFaculty

Of course that is a 7% decrease from a salary that didn't change from the year before either...

[scrantonfac @scrantonfac]

New AAUP salary data shows the average full time faculty salary increased 2% this academic year over last. With the pay freeze of just this year, the inflation impact for us is more like a 7% decrease on our base salary from last year to this year.

[Daniel P. Aldrich urbanists.social/web/@dpaldrich @DanielPAldrich]

Adjusted for inflation, real average salaries for #professors decreased 5 percent year over year, representing the greatest decrease in real-wage growth seen since 1979–80 @AAUP @raulpacheco @StacyDVanDeveer https://t.co/K9MWmTucVh
