Due to preparations of Roosevelt University's merger with Robert Morris University, our adjunct faculty office has changed locations to AUD 244.
Currently, the RAFO office will also be housed in AUD 244. We have already notified Physical Resources about the signage outside of the office, the physical space, and the doors to the office suite. New doors have been ordered and a key code will be used for the office as soon as they are installed. They are considering options for signage to make it easier for the students to find our new office.
While the university continues to transition, please have understanding with the changes and the modifications of the physical spaces. If anyone has questions, suggestions, or requests for the adjunct faculty union, contact Jen Wilson, RAFO President, at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or Joseph Fedorko, RAFO Membership Chair, at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. 
RAFO will continue to update the union membership with changes or announcements from the university as the merger unfolds over the Spring 2020 semester.
In solidarity,
RAFO Executive Committee
