We want this to be a start, not an end, of a conversation on how to build justice at Ohio University. We continue to have conversations with faculty and groups across campus, and are looking to use these conversations to generate other and new ideas of what a faculty union can fight for. A few of these ideas are listed below.

Developing provisions within a contract for a hiring process that follow best guidelines for recruiting faculty from underrepresented backgrounds.

Establishing in contracts that financial support for travel can be used for childcare.

Strengthening mentorship programs for faculty from historically underrepresented groups by ensuring that this type of service is recognized in any contract.
