Soildarity

San Francisco's private Jesuit university -- that's the University of San Francisco -- threw itself a $100,000 holiday party last evening -- and administrative and clerical staff represented by OPEIU Local 29 were on hand to remind guests that the administration is resisting paying a fair cost of living increase to these vital employees after taking advantage of savings from furloughs, benefit concessions, and unfilled positions during the pandemic emergency.

 

The university president, Fr. Paul Fitzgerald, could not escape this friendly welcoming party.

 

Members of campus unions including full time faculty, part-time faculty (that's Erudite Partner's union), and building and grounds workers joined the clerical staff.

Solidarity is beautiful.
