Join NFA
If you are a full-time CSN academic faculty employee, you already belong to CSN-NFA’s bargaining unit. As your authorized bargaining agent, CSN-NFA owes you fair representation: you will benefit from a negotiated contract in the same ways that dues-paying members of NFA will. Nevada’s right-to-work law ensures that anyone who wishes to reap the no-cost benefits of others’ unionizing efforts can do so without suffering discrimination.
Even so, personal choices have political effects. Becoming a dues-paying member of CSN-NFA helps faculty shift the balance of power in favor of our workplace rights. Adding your name to CSN-NFA’s membership roster and AAUP partnership proves you do care to protect your own interests in such employment issues as salary equity, base pay raises, fair and transparent due process in discipline and grievance actions, and impartial third-party arbitration for contract enforcement. Above all, your CSN-NFA membership tells everyone you care enough for your profession, your colleagues, and your students to unite in one voice that strives to improve our working conditions and our students’ learning conditions.
