UCW-CWA Members Fight to Improve Adjunct Faculty Working Conditions

From Memphis to Johnson City, United Campus Workers (UCW-CWA) members held events across Tennessee this week for an Adjuncts United Week of Action, revealing the Adjunct Faculty Bill of Rights with four key demands to improve working conditions for adjunct faculty.

Events were held at the University of Memphis, Austin Peay State University, Pellissippi State Community College, East Tennessee State University, and others.

The Adjunct Faculty Bill of Rights calls for improvements in compensation, regular and prompt pay periods, course prep fees, and job security.

At Pellissippi State Community College, UCW-CWA members set up information stations to raise awareness of adjunct working conditions.
