Congrats to Steve O'Kane, the accomplished UNI Biology prof, on his retirement party hosted by his department today. Fall 2021: Steve insisted on his class wearing masks during the pandemic, to keep everyone safe. "Doing the right thing, the moral thing, has to start somewhere."

Florida is treating its faculty unions terribly, but @UnitedFacultyFL, we had to deal with the same partisan obstructionism in Iowa since 2017. You can do it!

Cracking down on public employee unions has only further harmed the working class in Iowa's economy. Every community, large and small, in the state is destabilized when the state undercuts its own public employees and their families.

We are closing in on 90%+ faculty voter participation at UNI. Great job, UNI faculty! If you didn't vote yet, recertification voting closes at noon on Tuesday (10/25). Recertification is a lot of government-imposed red tape (since 2017), but we win by winning big every time!
