Rutgers AAUP-AFT’s Givan makes NJBIZ power list | American Federation of Teachers New Jersey, AFL-CIO

Rebecca Givan, president of Rutgers AAUP-AFT, has landed on NJBIZ’s latest Education Power 50 list.

“The union has tussled with administrators in recent years over spending priorities, a dispute that flared recently with the revelation that the Rutgers athletics program has run up $265 million in debt,” her entry on the list reads. “At the same time, the school is freezing salaries and imposing furloughs in the face of tight budgets. Givan is and will be the voice of the faculty as the story develops.”
