About this group

Contingent academics have been especially vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic as many of them are getting laid off due to budgetary issues, or because their time has come. This is a group for us to commiserate together, share tips on how to represent oneself, and how to deal with all the mental health issues that accompany these changes.

Group rules

Please be kind and supportive! We're all going through our own hell and don't need more.
