The Portland State University Faculty Association (PSUFA) is a democratic union that provides member advocacy, negotiates pay and benefits through collective bargaining, administers benefits for adjunct faculty, and seeks to improve their position at the University. Our work, on behalf of all part-time faculty and researchers, is supported by member dues, the university budget, and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT).
Our mission:
represent part-time faculty and researchers at Portland State University and facilitate communication between them and full-time faculty, staff and administrators at both Portland State University (PSU) and within the Oregon State System of Higher Education
improve the status of part-time faculty and researchers at PSU, and cooperate with other organizations to better the conditions of academic workers generally so as to promote excellence in education, teaching and research
negotiate and administer the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the PSU Faculty Association and the University
