During my time on the Executive Council of the PSC we achieved paid office hours and 3-year contracts for adjuncts with 3 weeks accumulated sick leave. Adjuncts achieved dental and vision benefits besides having health care as an individual. We are working to get adjuncts paid during the summer, and I am still working to end the two-tier system.​
