Return to Campus
As many more faculty resume in-person teaching today, the Association has created a web-page with a range of resources for you to access, including links to the Instructor Toolkit, links to research about the pandemic, tips about teaching, and a compilation of information related to refusing unsafe work
The MRFA Executive Board continues to work to ensure that we have a safe and healthy workplace so that we can safely be on campus and do the work we want to do.
