JOIN THE UNITED ADJUNCT FACULTY ASSOCIATION
East-West University (EWU), Chicago
DEMONSTRATION
PICKETING AGAINST UNFAIR LABOR ACTIONS
by EWU Chancellor Khan and Provost Jain.
Support our Protest Demonstration on Tuesday, July 13th
The adjunct faculty is working to get the National Education Association/Illinois Education Association (NEA/IEA) chapter union representation at East-West University.
Immediately after filing a petition for a NEA/IEA union representation election on May 26, 2010, the entire adjunct faculty received a letter dated May 25, 2010 from the Chancellor stating that ALL department chairs, full-time faculty and adjunct faculty should no longer consider themselves employed by EWU effective Summer 2010 and Fall Quarter 2010 until after a one on one “interview” with the chancellor before rehire is considered.
To this day, ONLY adjunct faculty contracts have been abrogated; only adjunct faculty have had their class assignments taken away ~ with no valid explanation. The actions taken by Chancellor Khan and Provost Jain are unacceptable and discriminatory in application. This anti-union tactic has already received national attention and is sure to receive more.
