UCW-CWA's letter to Interim UT President

On February 19, 2010 hundreds of union members and students rallied for jobs and education, to prevent proposed budget cuts that will devastate public education and communities across Tennessee and to propose alternatives to these cuts from solutions to the state's revenue crisis to internal funding reallocation from top level administration back to classroom instruction and essential student and support services. UCW-CWA leaders with the support of district and international leaders from our parent union the Communications Workers of America delivered this letter to Interim UT President, Dr. Jan Simek. The rally and march drew broad print and television media coverage.
