GU Kangaku Branch 関西学院大学支部

Established 17 January 2000

We set up this branch in response to a decision by the Kwansei Gakuin administration to make a massive 30% cut in pay for part-time English teachers. We managed to reverse this decision, and have gone on to win other improvements to our working conditions.

Kangaku teachers! Join us to win further improvements!
