Bargaining

Hard to believe, but it is bargaining season again. FUSA’s team will meet with the Admin team on Oct. 11, 9am – 12pm at the Ybor campus (YLRC 305) to negotiate the 2025-2028 contract. Bargaining will continue throughout Fall and will extend into Spring term. Further dates will be shared as they are scheduled. Faculty attendance at bargaining sessions is greatly encouraged!
