Lecturer Retires and Gifts the Local at Davis
Donald Johns provided a monetary gift to the UC-AFT Local at Davis.
"I would just note that my reasons are simple: I recognize that the union is largely responsible for my ability to have had a decent career and to enjoy a decent retirement. Moreover, I believe that no entity is more concerned with the quality of undergraduate education than UC-AFT. The analysis of the ongoing budget crisis that I read in the newsletter and on the website is the most thorough and thoughtful to be found. I plan to contribute annually as long as I am able. Finally, I urge all as-yet unaffiliated UC Davis academic staff who are eligible to please join the union now and support the effort to preserve gains while working toward a more humane learning and working environment."
