We can now continue to do the great work that goes on at each of our campuses with relative peace and the knowledge that the jobs that we love are fairly secure for the foreseeable future. There has been a lot of negative rhetoric spewed forth by agitators with personal and political agendas on this site and elsewhere. Thankfully, the vast majority of faculty and professionals saw through all that and voted in, not only their own best interests, but also in the best interests of our students and our colleges. You see, we're educators. We want to change the world just as much as the wannabe politicians and would be union presidents. However, we facilitate change, not by turning on our elected leaders, not by fiery speeches about pulling off flesh, not buy whispering campaigns and libelous personal attacks, but by striving, one student at a time, to help students better themselves through education. What you saw last week was a real contract campaign. A truthful, heartfelt effort by our dedicated union president to advise us on what he truly believed was the best course for us as union members and individuals. Thank God for Perry Buckley!If anyone is being used as a pawn it is those who urge us to constantly fight just for the sake of fighting with no practical goals or end games. The rudeness, vitriol, and the venom will likely continue and the great majority of us will continue to be amused by it and continue to ignore it.
