Message from the President

We begin the 2023-24 academic year with new Adjunct and Full-time contracts! 

We took a whole new approach to negotiations; starting earlier, keeping attorneys in the wings, and including the Provost on the college side of the table. This helped us settle a contract before it expired, something I hadn’t seen in my 18+ years at the college. Plus, they are good contracts to boot! Thank you to everyone that supported the Federation’s work. Working together, we can accomplish a lot!

Enrollment is strong, the college is good financial shape, but that doesn’t mean we sit back and relax. We need to continue to engage with each other and build on our successes. Please attend meetings if you are able and get more involved if you can! This is how we build on our solidarity and show a strong, united front.

It is an honor to work side by side with the talented, dedicated faculty of AFT Local #2375. Your hard work has made an incredible difference at RVCC. It is my privilege to be your President. I welcome your input and feedback. Thank you for all you do and continue to do!
