Building Excitement for the 2015 UALE Northeast Summer School (The 40th One!)

Fellow bloggers and sisters,

Many of you have heard from me via email and or Facebook, but once again I'd like to throw this message out onto the world wide web in the hopes of reaching our summer school alumna and our new sisters, too! As the date of our 40th Summer School approaches, (July 26th) we're really hoping to build excitement for the event and maybe even get some new recruits by sharing stories of past schools that sisters have attended or bios of new students who are passionate about labor. As you all know, it is so imperative to share our enthusiasm for labor with others if we want to expand as a force. Please, if you feel that you can contribute by answering any or a few of these questions and allowing your answers to be featured here and on our Facebook page, contact me, Jodi Rafalko, Intern of the Penn State School of Labor and Employment Relations at jlr5979@psu.edu. Your input would be incredibly valuable to other sisters who might not know what's in store for them at our the UALE Summer School this July.

Thank you in advance for your help! See you soon!!

In Solidarity.......
Jodi Rafalko

  1. Here are some of the interview questions that I'd like to learn from you!

    In your opinion, why is important for women of the labor movement to come together?

    Why are you excited for the upcoming UALE Summer School (if you are attending)?

    What is one tip you would give a fellow union sister?

    What is one tip you would give to someone attending their first UALE Summer School?

    What woman or women in labor throughout history or today inspire(s) you to do the work you do?

    What else would you like your fellow union and labor advocates to know about you?

    What would you say to a sister who may be nervous about coming to summer school?

    How is the UALE Summer School relevant to union woman and labor activists?

    Are you bringing anyone new with you to summer school this year?

    Can you provide me the name and contact information of another sister we should interview for summer school? We want as many stories as possible for this special 40th School. We will make sure to reach out with questions that are applicable and welcome her to the school.
