Take the survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/upeifaFall2020Survey.

The context of Covid-19 has created a multitude of new demands on academic staff, professional staff, and librarians. The transition to online teaching seems to have increased the workload of many FA members. Unmet requests for increased supports and resources have produced frustrations for some. The ability to launch or continue research projects has proven challenging for some. And all of this has taken place in a context where concerns around health and safety – for ourselves, our colleagues, and our students – are ever-present in our minds. The FA Executive wants to understand the challenges you are facing in a more systematic way.

To that end, we are asking members to follow this link and complete a brief survey. The survey is anonymous, and the results will be used both to “take the pulse” of the membership, but also to hone the Executive’s advocacy efforts.

The survey opens Thursday, October 15th and will close Thursday, October 29th, at 5:00pm.
