The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) just finished counting our election ballots – we are excited to announce that SVA faculty voted by an overwhelming 77% (568 - yes to 167 - no) in favor of SVA Faculty United - UAW as our union.

We will have more information soon regarding next steps in our campaign. For now, we want to thank everyone who participated in our historic election, and the over two years of discussion among hundreds of faculty that lead to this point. Together, we have truly generated an unprecedented conversation around the importance and value of our work as faculty at SVA and beyond.

Join us for a post-count happy hour happening now at Nancy Whiskey Pub (1 Lispenard St, New York, NY 10013) - we hope to see you there!

Thank you,

SVA Faculty United - UAW Organizing Committee
