strike is entering its fifth week and, with the cold
weather and College Employer Council's reluctance to
bargain a fair deal, it is of utmost importance for
all allies to come out and show their solidarity
with the striking faculty and support them in their
struggle. YUFA encourages all members and allies to
take the time (even if it is for a few minutes) to
come out and show their support.</span><span

College faculty are facing underpaid contracts with
no job security beyond one semester. Here are their
main demands: <br>
<br>
* A 50:50 ratio of full-time to contract faculty,
which currently sits at over 70% contract faculty<br>
* Increased job security for partial-load faculty,
who currently work on one-semester contracts<br>
* Academic freedom to give faculty a stronger voice
in academic decision-making<br>
