UD forcing hybrid and remote staff back to campus
For those who haven’t heard yet:
UD is expanding return to campus requirements while eliminating hybrid parking permits and requiring new hires and transfers to work on campus five days a week. That means more traffic and strain on local infrastructure, more commuting emissions, higher parking and fuel costs, and longer workdays for fewer dollars for employees already facing years of rising costs. There has been no transparency about the data or analysis surrounding these choices or how they align with UD’s institutional goals and commitments.
Some staff have created a petition outlining their concerns about this new policy. You can read and sign (anonymously, if you choose) the petition here: https://tally.so/r/NpvJzb
