We, Rutgers full-time faculty and grad workers, want a productive and timely bargaining process that results in an equitable contract. For more than two years, we have worked alongside our students through extraordinary pandemic conditions, allowing Rutgers to thrive in troubling times. Now, the people who make Rutgers work need to be respected and properly compensated. We stand by our union’s package of contract demands for financial security and equity, as well as greater control over the systems impacting our research, teaching, and service (
