Bargaining is coming and the GEU needs your help! First complete the survey to tell us what matters to you.

And don't skip the last two questions! You can tell us whatever you want there.
Then come to the GMM next Thursday to vote on a bargaining platform that will guide our priorities throughout the process.

We have reached an agreement with the university on our contract extension! Effective August 16th, the contract minimums will be raised by 6%, and every TA will receive either a 5% raise to your current salary or the new minimum for your appointment level, whichever is greater.
We guaranteed language granting us access to the New TA Institute and department orientations across campus, which will help us to build our strength to bargain a full contract next year.
I want to thank everyone who took part in this process! MSU works because we do, and so does this union!

We will be postponing our GMM until next Friday as well as taking it online-only. It will begin at 5:00PM via zoom. RSVP details should be arriving in your inbox soon.
There are no words for the tragic and wholly preventable violence the MSU community experienced earlier this week.
However we are with our members and community.
We are sad.
We are scared.
We are overwhelmed.
We are angry.
Please see some additional resources compiled by a member: https://tinyurl.com/MSUspartanstrong
This includes a link to a petition to take classes online for the remainder of the spring semester as well as a letter template you can send to MSU admin regarding extending the return to classes. There are also many planned events listed on the page, both at the Capitol and at MSU.
Please take as good of care as you can at this time.
