The Representative Assembly maintains a number of standing and ad hoc committees that address topics and issues of importance to union members. Committees welcome issues, concerns, and suggestions from faculty. Dues-paying members are also welcome and encouraged to join a committee! Please contact a member of the relevant committee.
All standing committee descriptions are in our by-laws. Our current ad-hoc committees are our Campaign Action Team (CAT) and our Non-Tenure Track Committee.
