Florida Southwestern State College Faculty Federation Florida SouthWestern State College Faculty Federation represents the faculty at Florida SouthWester We are here to assist, advise and support you.

Our website has been revamped and includes valuable information about our organization. Please take a few minutes to browse the site. Purpose

In our profession, there are many things we can accomplish as individuals: completing advanced degrees, writing lectures, teaching courses, advising students, doing research, and writing scholarly articles and books. However, there are others we cannot accomplish alone, such as working to improve state funding for increased faculty salaries and benefits, working to improve the faculty's role in decision-making on contractual issues, assisting in the negotiation of collective bargaining contracts, protecting academic freedom and tenure, defending faculty rights, influencing the formulation of policy by the governing boards, working for legislation to improve the quality of education in our colleges and universities, and advancing academic excellence. Class load, equipment, salaries, professional advancement, and instructional resources are all decisions that affect higher education faculty and are either a bargaining issue or a political decision and involve FSWFF. In the political arena, UFF and its affiliates advocate the interests of all UFF constituents before the Florida Legislature and education agencies.
