We are the 1700 faculty & academic staff working at Wayne State University
Our members belong to AAUP-AFT Local 6075. We are affiliated with the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), AFT Michigan, and the AFL-CIO. WAU also participates in the WSU Coalition of Unions.
Join WAU members at Rochester Hills Public Library! On Monday, June 10th, from 7 pm to 8:30 pm, we will be in RHPL's makerspace laser etching tumblers. See what cool equipment you can use at the makerspace, support a public library, and build solidarity with your fellow WAU members. Guests are welcome. RSVP at bit.ly/WAUTumblers
Join the Bargaining Team for short updates on Wednesdays at 4 pm.
Howard Bunsis, Professor of Accounting at Eastern Michigan University, has performed an independent analysis of Wayne State University’s finances. Key findings are that the university is in a solid financial position, supported by strong reserves and solid annual excess cash flows. Review the full report here.
As we end the Winter 2024 semester, your WAU Bargaining Team continues its busy schedule of meetings for negotiating our new contract. The Team meets internally once or twice a week, and we sit across the Administration Team once a week for 2-3 hours as we debate and negotiate our concerns.
