CUNY faculty and staff rally at Medgar Evers College, Bronx Community College to protect health, safety and jobs

The Professional Staff Congress (PSC) staged a demonstration and rally on the first day of Spring Semester classes to protest what they believed are unsafe and unfair working conditions at several CUNY institutions. The rally was held simultaneously at two CUNY locations; Medgar Evers College and Bronx Community College (BCC), with organizers passing out 1,000 N95 masks along with sweatshirts and other memorabilia and council members in attendance.

The rally, organized by the PSC Union on Jan. 28, was attended by protesting faculty and staff who alleged that the CUNY system was deliberately endangering students and staff members by allowing in-person instruction to continue in buildings that did not meet sufficient ventilation requirements. The group also alleged that CUNY schools were not providing adequate personal protective equipment (PPE) and had already canceled 10% of classes despite certain classes being necessary for graduating students.
