Introducing Krista Kennedy

October 25, 2018 / PSU-AAUP

My name is Krista Kennedy and I am the Sponsored Student Program Administrator in the Office of International Affairs. I have been at Portland State for 4 years and am a proud PSU-AAUP member volunteer. I stay active in our union by attending the general membership meetings, serving on the Sick Leave Bank Committee, and holding an at-large PSU-AAUP Executive Council position. At my previous institution, we did not have a union to help us come together and fight the administration to secure basic needs for faculty and academic professionals. Being part of PSU-AAUP helps me feel supported through our efforts related to increasing benefits and compensation. I look forward to connecting with new members at upcoming events.
