ACSUM Delegates Convene
30th Annual Delegate Assembly

 

ACSUM delegates discuss new classification system  at annual delegate assembly.

ACSUM held its 30th Annual Delegate Assembly on April 10th. One of the major portions of the meeting was a discussion on the new classification system that is being developed. Members, first in small groups and then as one large group, discussed the pros and cons of the current system and set guidelines that the negotiation team will use as we continue to develop and ultimately collectively bargain the new system. One of the many benefits of being a dues-paying member of ACSUM is the ability to have an active voice in all important issues such as the development of a new classification system. Non-members do not get this opportunity! For more information on the delegate assembly, click on the link above for the "ACSUM Newsletter May 2010."
