For every P course taught by a FT Grad Student, a Grad Student Supplement in the amount of $416 should be provided on top of the base rate for the course.

This has been discussed this with HR and they are acknowledging that errors have been made with quite a few folks not receiving the Supplement.

The union is collecting the following information to verify if the member received the Supplement or not:

– the name of FT Grad Students who taught a course
– the name of the course(s) taught
– the term when the course was taught

Members should mention all courses taught between Fall of 2021 and the current term. 

The information should be emailed to the Local’s president, Phil Wachel, as soon as possible:
