In light of the College of DuPage Faculty Association’s recent agreement to a contract extension, some of you have been wondering if CODAA will still be entering into negotiations.

Although CODAA was also offered a contract extension, after careful review and consideration, the CODAA Board did not feel it was in our member’s best interest to extend the current contract based on what was being offered. Counter proposals by CODAA, which included language to strengthen right of assignment for our members, were rejected.

Therefore, we are currently preparing for negotiations and expect to enter into collective bargaining sometime in February, 2017. Our preparation for negotiations is informed by the survey of our members conducted earlier this year.

The CODAA Board

In October, CODAA asked members to share their accomplishments with us. I invite you all to join in congratulating your colleagues for their exceptional work at and outside of the College. In reading the submissions, I was reminded of the incredible talent and dedication of our adjuncts and part-time Counselors and Advisors.

2016 Adjunct Accomplishments

If you did not submit anything to us this semester, I hope reading about your colleagues will encourage you to share your story in spring 2017.
