Mission Statement

United Campus Workers of Mississippi unites Mississippi’s diverse workforce—including part-time and full-time staff, faculty, and student laborers—to address the critical issues we all face. Our mission is to champion and defend the interests and well-being of all University labor, as well as to build and sustain social and economic justice in our workplaces and in our communities.

The UCW is a “wall-to-wall” union which means any individual who receives a paycheck from the state of Mississippi as a worker at a state college or university is eligible to join the UCW.

We have members at the University of Mississippi, University of Southern Mississippi, Mississippi State University, and the Mississippi University for Women and we urge you to join and become an active advocate for yourself and all other campus workers in Mississippi.
