If you are interested in supporting the campaign for fair wages at Miami, here’s what you can do:

1. Start an email to livingwagemiami@gmail.com.

2. List your name and affiliation with Miami University or another organization.

3. Write a brief statement in support of a living wage for Miami’s full time staff.

4. Send it to us and enjoy good karma for the day.

On June 16th, 2007, Students For Staff members distributed 800 informational fliers to returning Miami alumni. The alums visited the Oxford campus to participate in Alumni Weekend, and we made sure not to miss out on the festivities. The fliers explained our ongoing campaign for a living wage, and we asked alumni to tell President Hodge that Miami’s staff deserve a living wage.

Alumni were also asked to add their names to our growing list of living wage supporters. The majority of alumni responded positively, and seemed genuinely interested in the issue. All told, we’re really glad to get these people involved in the SFS campaign — after all, Miami is their alma mater!

Great job to everybody who helped out with making this event a success. In the words of one particularly enthusiastic alum, “Rock On!!”

After a semester-long wait, the new SFS site is online. With the tools now available to us, we’ll be able to use this space like never before — so stay tuned.

Tell all your friends: the action is happening at www.musfs.org!
