Oberlin's anti-union drive
Posted Thursday, February 20, 2020 04:45 PM

Hi All,

As you probably saw in the note from President Amber, the Oberlin administration wants to take an axe to union members, contracting out their work in order to reduce wages and benefits. This will be very harmful to working people in Oberlin who already have very few decent alternative employment opportunities.   

An alumni petition has been started to urge the Administration to reverse course.  It would be great if we could all take a look and sign it.  I'm hoping it will make a difference.

Please spread the word,
 
Many thx for your consideration,

Les
