PSUFA 2025 Bargaining Platform

Adjunct professors and researchers are critical to the educational mission of PSU. When adjuncts get the resources and working conditions they need to succeed, everyone wins—from students to full-time faculty and staff. 

Together We Thrive

Fair Compensation

Adjuncts deserve fair pay, living wages, and raises for length of service

Equal Pay for Equal Work

End the two-tier system! Adjuncts deserve the same pay and benefits for the same work as their full-time counterparts

Job Security

Honor contracts and assignment rights

Real Benefits

All adjuncts deserve retirement benefits and access to health, dental and vision care.

The Support We Need

Adjuncts need better working space and resources to support their scholarly, professional, and artistic practices

Academic Freedom

Vulnerable faculty need guaranteed protections to speak the truth in their teaching and research

Transparency and Collaboration

Workers have a right to know how PSU is making critical decisions and the opportunity to shape the way our institution is run
