Stonehill College has received a $1,106,348 federal grant to expand special education teacher training and credentials on Cape Cod and the Islands.

Boston Teachers Union Statement on November 2026 School Closure Proposals

UMass Boston cannot claim it truly values diversity today
Faculty members are more than service employees responsible for delivering course materials. These are mentors, researchers, and contributors to the academic environment that students depend on. These issues should matter to the entire university community. Relying on non-tenure-track faculty to sustain the university’s academic programs but providing them with fewer protections and opportunities creates an imbalance that deserves institutional scrutiny. This is a question of whose labor is valued and protected.
