Welcome to the Blog!

Hello to the members of PSU's chapter of the American Association of University Professors. My name is Jeff Alworth; I've been a unit rep for the past few years and this year I am new member of the collective bargaining team. I thought it might be useful for the union to have a blog so we can share information and get feedback from you all. This is an important year for our members. With the economy in crisis, our jobs, incomes, and benefits are in jeopardy; we need to have a pipeline for discussion, so we're giving this blog a try.

Please feel free to click around the articles as they go up. We'll be tagging each post with a label; if you want to learn more about a specific topic, you can click on the label and find all archived posts relevant to that topic. Please feel free to contact me at any time about bargaining, and ... welcome to the blog!
