Part-time faculty members at Montgomery College, in Maryland, have voted overwhelmingly in favor of union representation by the Service Employees International Union Local 500.
The 365-to-105 vote was a first for part-time instructors in the state, the union said in a news release. About 1,000 adjuncts teach about half of all courses offered at Montgomery College, the union said.
“The opportunities we now have to win improvements for ourselves and our students are endless,” said Terilee Edwards-Hewitt, a part-timer quoted in the news release.
