We appreciate all the words of support and appreciation offered by our colleagues and friends. We will do our best to negotiate a fair and good outcome for our members.

Please encourage your colleagues, friends and students to attend the Halloween Howl on Thursday from 2-4 pm. We all need some time to socialize, have fun and remember that we are a community dedicated to academic excellence and opening new horizons for our students.

In solidarity,

Your UPI negotiating team….
