Hi All:
Whether you have something going on for Campus Equity on your campus or not, you can still make a Campus Equity Week Statement via Facebook. Below is a campaign put together by Bobbie-Lee Smart, a Sociology Adjunct out of Cerritos College in Southern LA:
For Campus Equity Week my local decided on a social media campaign and I encourage everyone to participate if they can or feel comfortable doing so. First there is a Facebook frame, which can be changed for the week, a day, or longer. If you click on you Facebook photo to edit it, there is an option to add a frame. At the top you can search for the frame CEW2019. This is a way for adjunct faculty and those who support us to raise awareness for our work conditions.
The other option is to post a “back to school photo”. Use a white board, chalkboard, piece of paper, or note application on your phone. Add your name, discipline, how long you have adjuncted, how many “gigs” you have both paid & unpaid, and your #1 equity wish. I will include all 3 boards we have in the photos, as we have boards for PT, FT, & students. Get creative & add subjects, take some out, rearrange at will! It’s simply important to use the #CEW2019 so we are all on the same page. If you really want to get bold tag your campuses & the governor in the post. We will be posting people from our local on Instagram, Facebook, & Twitter. Ask participants to also post on their personal pages to reach more people!
Do it good adjuncts! Be the change you seek.
