Instead of resisting CUNY’s unjustified demand for budget cuts, Queens College administration decided to lay off 26 full time Queens College faculty, just weeks before the semester! These sudden and cruel layoffs deeply hurt faculty’s livelihoods, and in some cases take away their healthcare benefits. Queen’s College administration’s brutal conduct affected hundreds of students and instructors, and dramatically cut course offerings at the college. You can read more about the layoffs below.
Join us on Thursday, January 25, to demand that Queens College reverse these outrageous layoffs! We have two actions planned:
At 9 AM, join us in the music building, to help us distribute flyers to get the word out to the Queens College community!
And at 12 PM join us in front of Kiely Hall, to protest the layoffs and the budget cuts that destroy our college.
