Hello fellow Roanoke alumni. Recently, Roanoke College announced that, starting next year, they will be moving to a 4-4 teaching load and firing adjuncts and conditional faculty. More information about the change can be found here: https://chng.it/7ftg7wpHTx

Roanoke faculty are fighting back against these changes, but they need assistance with legal fees. Read their message below and consider donating to help keep Roanoke the world-class institution we all remember and love:

"In the wake of recent announcements proposing faculty layoffs and uncompensated changes in faculty workloads, the Roanoke College Chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), an independent faculty advocacy organization, is hiring legal counsel to examine and issue a legal judgment on whether the contractual terms of our employment have been violated by the administration.

Our initial legal fees are $3,500. We thank the alumni and everyone in our RC community for contributing whatever they can to help save our college!"
