Unemployment Assistance from COCAL

The Chicago Coalition of Contingent Academic Labor has published a handbook about unemployment benefits.  You can download the pdf for free at the linked site, or you can order a hard copy directly from the site for $5 plus $2 shipping.  Either way, you’ll be getting some essential information about your rights to collect unemployment and how to engage in the process.

Again, if you have ever wondered how or why you, as an adjunct, should get unemployment and how to go about that process, this booklet is a great place to start!

A big thank you to COCAL for putting this out!
