For decades, non-tenure track faculty have come together to ask for better working conditions: fair compensation, improved reappointment guidelines, consistent contract lengths, reasonable teaching loads, membership on committees, recognition within the Strategic Plan and a more secure future at Wellesley. Our collective action over the past few years has resulted in measurable gains, yet the system that exploits our labor remains intact and relatively unchanged. Now, after an overwhelming majority of eligible faculty voted YES, we have formed our Union.
