Tell President Schapiro to Stop Violating Labor Law and Bargain with NTE Faculty 11/01/2017

After a long organizing drive and prolonged legal process, Northwestern University’s non-tenure eligible (NTE) faculty won their union certification on May 26, 2017. Unlike those two schools, however, Northwestern has announced that they will not begin negotiations with the newly formed union. In doing so, Northwestern is in violation of labor law. Please sign this petition to demand that the administration provide faculty justice if you have not yet!

Thank you to everyone who came to our Day of Action yesterday evening! Together, we wrote 50 letters to non-profits and elected officials and made countless phone calls. Our executive board is so proud of everything ZOOZ has accomplished this year, and we would like to thank everyone who contributed by coming to our events and joining us in our social justice mission.

Let's continue moving forward in pursuit of a world that reflects the values of justice, community empowerment, and inclusivity that we hold dear. Tzedek, tzedek tirdof. We can't wait to see you all next year!

With love and support,
ZOOZ
