Good morning @columbia endowment, Do you know what would be cuter than "thank you" notes, banners and posters? It's SIMPLE: a retroactive refund of the pension money that you owe us officers THANK YOU! Yours, CPW-UAW 4100 + AAUP-Columbia

In bargaining, @Columbia has proposed no increase to the minimum salary and no guaranteed annual increases. Columbia is falling behind other NYC research intuitions and needs to do the right thing and adequately compensate researchers. #contractnow #1u #uaw #postdocunion

In september 2021 we learned that not only did these revenue losses never materialize, but @columbia earned $150M and the endowment grew from $11.3B to $14.35B. Notably, similar measures at @JohnsHopkins were reversed upon a faculty-driven audit 👩‍🎓👨‍🎓 that proved no losses 3/5

In some departments, admins are arguing raises above 2.5% are PROHIBITED by the contract. Not only FALSE but it's DESPICABLE to make such argument. Art 5 Section 2 :“Nothing shall preclude the University from providing compensation at rates above required in this Article” (2/6)

✊🏽 It's not the first time that admins use FEAR as part of their union-busting strategy, specially using immigration status. On Friday the head of HR @Columbia sent postdocs and ARS an email full of misleading/misrepresenting/inaccurate information re: strike. The facts 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Importantly, this contract was won through union power - we organized and fought for this contract, including being ready to strike if we did not receive an acceptable offer! We want to thank and congratulate all the CPW members who fought for this!

Postdocs are pushing back against low pay and conditions — more institutions must take heed

Nature - Postdoctoral dissatisfaction about pay, job security and career progression cannot continue. Institutions must up their game or risk losing the next generation.
