Dr. Michael A. Erwin, Board Chair

DeKalb County Board of Education

1701 Mountain Industrial Blvd.

Stone Mountain, GA 30083

Dear Board Chair Erwin:

The Georgia Federation of Teachers concurs with the DeKalb NAACP regarding the school district’s request to raise the millage rate. The present administration has almost double the budget from that which was under former Superintendent Michael Thurmond.

Again, we ask as others have asked for a Forensic Audit.

The Comptroller's Office has release two memoranda related to the 3% Retiree Healthcare contributions (also refered to as OPEB or OPE2 or OPE15).

Monday is Labor Day.  It is exactly what it sounds like: it is a day set aside to honor and commemorate all that labor unions have contributed to the work environment.  All of the gains achieved through the labor movement have had such a tremendous, positive, and noteable impact on the wages, hours, and working conditions of this country that this day was created and maintained as a national holiday for over 120 years.

Here’s a new scam, and it’s not coming from Washington, DC: Telephone scammers are scaring seniors―taking advantage of our Social Security system’s role as a reliable foundation of economic security for all of us.

         The newly ratified contract negotiated between the Rutgers Part-Time Lecturer Faculty Chapter and Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey contains, for the first time, provisions for evaluation procedures and subsequent advancement to different levels of PTL employment. Under this new system, all PTLs will be evaluated in some way every semester.

Looking for a position that requires the skills of an advocate, educator, and organizer?  You should become a union steward.

This is the AFT website for the adjunct union chapter at Camden County College campuses in Blackwood, Camden and Cherry Hill, New Jersey. We are the CCC chapter of United Adjunct Faculty of New Jersey AFT #2222. Our original union, Camden County College Adjunct Faculty Federation (CCCAFF), was founded in 1995 to represent the economic, social and professional interests of part-time contingent faculty. It is affiliated with the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the international union of the AFL-CIO. In 2009, the NJ AFT community college locals voted to join together to form a super local called United Adjunct Faculty of New Jersey (UAFNJ). The Camden County Chapter of UAFNJ will continue to maintain local autonomy in dealing with the College. At the moment, including the members from Camden County College, the nine member chapters have more than 3000 members in UAFNJ.
