Support Our Union! 
Support Parsons Fine Art Faculty!

When: Thursday, April 23, 12-1 pm

Where: Directly in front of the New School administration building at 66 West 12th Street (between 5th and 6th Avenues, New York City)

What: ACT-UAW Local 7902, the union of part-time faculty at NYU and the New School, will sponsor a rally protesting mass dismissals of arts faculty at Parsons the New School for Design.

In light of Interim Provost Tim Marshall’s comment that the Parsons situation is "very typical of what happens in the school every single semester, all the time, all over the place," the event will also highlight a range of administration actions targeting part-timers across the university.

This is a critical time for part-time faculty at the New School, with negotiations looming in advance of our contract's expiration on September 1. Come out! Bring your faculty friends, your artist friends, your neighbors, your kids! Make a sign! Blow a whistle!

Send Fine Art Chair Coco Fusco, Provost Tim Marshall, and President Bob Kerrey a Message They Can't Ignore!
