The #UniversityOfAlaska regents who voted to remove DEI language from all University websites and publications.

These people look totally qualified to make decisions about DEI, yeah?

If you get a vote, vote NO on the upcoming UNAC-UA contract.

UA wants you to take 3% raises on average for the next three years. You'd need something closer to 6% to return you to your 2018 buying power.

In 2023 the avg Alaska worker got 5.2%.

BREAKING: #UniversityofAlaska and faculty union tentatively agree to new contract.

We call on faculty to vote no and to join with all UA workers in a militant, extralegal struggle.

That is the only way we'll get more than continued cuts to our real wages.

Saw one of our faculty at the gas station last night.

He was scouring the gas station parking lot with a flashlight, really focusing on the area near the air compressor.

"I supplement my income by finding and selling lost tire air valve caps," he said. "Plus, some of these air compressors have to be paid for with quarters. Find one of those every now and then."

You know the University's anti-cyberbullying campaign has gone too far when they start referring to regular bullying as "offline cyberbullying."

Now's as good a time as any for an #introduction!
