The End of Tenure? ACTION REQUIRED!

Now that the Governor and Legislature have created a law that stripped K-12 teachers of their continuing contracts and due process rights they are now turning their attention to doing the same to college faculty.


PCB KCOS 11-03 (click to view bill) Florida College System institution: The bill discontinues the award of tenure, multi-year contracts, and continuing contracts for all personnel of Florida College System (FCS) institutions as of July 1, 2011, except for the president of the institution. The bill prohibits the renewal, extension, or re-adoption of such contracts in effect prior to July 1, 2011; however, the board of trustees of an FCS institution (FCS BOT) may award these personnel annual contracts.

Please contact legislators today to speak out against this bill!
