According to our contract, a grievance is a violation, misapplication, or misinterpretation of the contract.
In order to file a grievance, we must state a specific part of the contract which has been violated.
Unfortunately, many instances where we feel the administration is treating us unfairly are not technically grievances (some call these "gripes"). If you feel you are being treated unfairly or inappropriately, please contact a member of the Grievance Committee.
Finally, if you find yourself in a situation in which you are being asked by the Administration to do something that you feel is not within the contract, the best thing to do is to follow their direction and then grieve it.
