You know where your classroom is.
You know where your office is.
But do you know where to find your union?

This semester, get connected with NTFC. Know your contract. Know your rights. Know your coworkers.

Did you know? 👀

NTFC has stewards whose job is to help members understand and exercise their workplace rights.

When you have a question at work, you don't have to figure it out alone.
That's what solidarity is for. ✊

Thank you to everyone who showed up for Jordan this week—whether you volunteered, stood alongside others, or simply made the choice to be present. Your presence has been deeply moving and has reminded us of the power of community.

🔷 Please note: 🔶 There will be no Solidarity Guard on Thursday and Friday, as Jordan will not be on campus these days.

We show up for each other. We stand with each other. That is solidarity. ✊

Solidarity Guard Continues This Week

We show up for each other. ✊

Following last Thursday’s assault on our member Jordan Sellers, NTFC’s Solidarity Guard will continue throughout the week to support Jordan and demonstrate our collective commitment to safety, care, and solidarity.

🔶 Each day except Wednesday 🔷
8:30am: Meet at the Mathews Avenue side entrance of Siebel Center for Computer Science, then walk together to the English Building.
2:00pm: Meet at the Quad-side entrance of the English Building, then walk together back to Siebel.

Bring your union solidarity, and wear your NTFC swag if you have it!

The University should have acted before one of our members was injured. We cannot undo what happened, but we can make sure Jordan—and every member of our community—knows that we take care of each other.

💪 Solidarity is how we keep each other safe.
