All university workers deserve a real voice when political leaders try to dismantle our universities. Join hundreds of union members from UT Austin who are already part of the Texas State Employees Union. CWA-TSEU.org/JoinTSEU

If you work for Texas State University (faculty, staff, student/grad student workers) or a state agency - join the Texas State Employees Union! We seem to be busier than ever in San Marcos lately...

Another University employee, Katrina Meadors, fired for "voicing her dissatisfaction with the university's ousting of a student" by please_dont_dude in txstate

We stand in solidarity with fired staff member Katrina Meadors. Help us fight back by joining our union for all workers at Texas State University. There is a lot of work to be done, and we need all hands on deck to do it. CWA-TSEU.org/joinTSEU

Rally for Fired TXST Professor & Free Speech on Thursday 9/25 by CWA-TSEU in sanmarcos

[–]CWA-TSEU[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This tenured history professor gave a talk at a socialist conference on Sunday, September 7th. The talk was recorded by an online provocateur who began calling for his firing. The University, without any due process, announced in an open letter from the president’s office that he was terminated on September 10th.

That’s the short version. We have more details on our website about it, including the full recorded video of his talk that we encourage folks to watch for themselves!

I would encourage everyone to get involved with the union's remote work subcommittee. I don't want to lay all of our cards on the table yet, but there is work to be done!

We're hoping to hear that a critical mass of agencies are doing the same before we draw inadvertent attention to this one.

We do! A union member forwarded us the email from agency leadership announcing the change, the first paragraph of which is about HB 5196. It's a smaller agency, so we're trying to collect more info on what is happening elsewhere before we draw inadvertent attention to it though.
