#NAWD or National Adjunct Walkout Day is February 25, 2015
… (and February 23-27, National Adjunct Action week) is a day that adjuncts all over the country will take advantage of to bring attention to the plight of adjuncts. There are shared goals and concerns to be certain, but exactly how adjuncts use the day or week is to be determined by each adjunct, group, or campus.
We encourage adjuncts to work together with other groups for maximum effect. But we are especially heartened by the "lone" adjuncts, or the isolated adjuncts who may be wondering how they can support #NAWD.
To our minds, there is no group more equipped to self-organize than adjuncts. Adjuncts are educators who are forced to be innovative and creative with limited resources and no support on a daily basis. Self-organizing is the adjunct's bread and butter. In order to assist adjuncts we will be posting links to resources that we think adjuncts may find helpful, as well as a Tumblr. These are for the lone adjuncts too in the hopes that adjuncts standing in solidarity on February 25 will help bring about positive change.
