About UFAS-UWEC

United Faculty and Academic Staff (UFAS) advocates for about 800 faculty and academic staff (instructional and administrative/professional) at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. We are affiliated with the American Federation of Teachers (AFT-Wisconsin, local 6481) and with the AFL-CIO.

We strive for a strong, healthy, vibrant university through shared governance and collective action.

We believe that investing in people--students, staff, and faculty--is the key to ensuring a bright future for UWEC and the state of Wisconsin.
