NO MORE FACULTY CUTS

Humber’s surpluses over the last 20+ years are over $500 million! In fact, not once in the last 20+ years has the College run a deficit. Where did the funds go?

Cutting faculty is not the solution to a projected deficit. Tell Ann Marie Vaughan and the Humber Leadership to reverse their plans for staffing cuts by signing the petition letter.

Today, we asked Humber community members a question: what are your thoughts on the OSAP changes, which would convert grants to loans and saddle graduates with even more debt?

Students, faculty, and staff spoke in unison: The Ontario government must invest in colleges to develop a skilled workforce, not transfer the financial burden of education onto students in an already precarious economy.

While the post-secondary funding changes are welcome news after intense public pressure, there is much to be done. Let this milestone fuel our continued advocacy. #saveourcolleges

Our support staff colleagues are on the front line

Our support staff colleagues are on the front lines fighting for a college system that champions stable employment for support staff and faculty alike.

Labour action brings people together in collective recognition of our shared struggle. That has never been more true for College workers than now. But strikes also bring hardship, uncertainty, and exhaustion.

OPSEU Local 562 is committed to supporting our sibling union, OPSEU Local 563. We have their backs and they have ours. We've picketed and rallied together, and today we donated $15,000 to Local 563's hardship fund. Their fight is our fight, and our solidarity is the best weapon against the dismantling of Ontario's Colleges. #saveourcolleges
