Celebrate the FA's birthday on March 10: The FA was founded on March 10, 1970, and celebrated our 50th anniversary in 2020. We remind our members to pause and reflect on the value of our union on March 10 this year. It has taken generations of union activists and untold hours of labor to develop the contract and benefits that we enjoy today. While we know there's always room for improvement, we also know that without the FA the college would be very different workplace today.
