We have a speaker for this October's meeting.
Joel Eckert worked at a university in an administrative staff position as IT Support in the engineering faculty for 11 years, and is well aware of the culture of universities. University professors are disillusioned with the overreach of power from the administrative arms of universities. Faculty Associations are more individualist, not even remotely comparable to let's say, Ontario Teachers' Unions. They advocate for the rights of individual professors, who have consistently been trampled by the administrations at our universities. While many of us have attended university, we probably don't have a good understanding of how they are run.
