Yes! I support my colleagues in our efforts to build a strong union. I hereby become a member of the Temple University Graduate Students' Association, and I authorize TUGSA to be my exclusive representative for the purposes of collective bargaining with Temple University.

I am aware that I may cancel my membership in the union at any time by sending a written notice to TUGSA but that my dues authorization will remain in full force and effect until revoked by me in writing to both TUGSA and the Temple Labor Relations Office during the ten (10) business days preceding the expiration of a semester. For more information, I understand that I can contact union@tugsa.org to request instructions on terminating my membership.

I, the undersigned, a member of TUGSA, authorize Temple University to deduct all dues payments authorized by the TUGSA Constitution and Bylaws from my pay and to remit the amount so deducted to TUGSA, while I am employed in a bargaining unit position.

This authorization will remain in full force and effect until revoked by me, in writing. Such revocation must be a written notice sent to TUGSA and the Temple Labor Relations Office during the ten (10) business days preceding the expiration of a semester.

As of June 1, 2004, the TUGSA Bylaws set dues at 1.65% of income from employment within the bargaining unit. Dues levels are established by the membership and are subject to change according to procedures defined in Article Thirteen of the TUGSA Constitution. Copies of the TUGSA Constitution and Bylaws are available at the TUGSA office or online at https://www.tugsa.org.

Your TUid number is your nine-digit university identification number (often beginning with a "915" or "916"). It is NOT your email/username (e.g. tux12345). You can find your TUid printed on your OWLcard (ID card). If you don't have your OWLcard, you can view it by heading to TUportal, going to the "Home" tab, then clicking the link on the left side that says "Get My TUid". Email union@tugsa.org with any questions.
