United Campus Workers of Virginia is a wall-to-wall union organizing public college and university workers across Virginia. We are Local 2265 of Communications Workers of America District 2-13. UCW-VA currently comprises 4 chapters at the University of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University, The College of William & Mary, and Virginia Tech.

United Campus Workers of Virginia began at the University of Virginia in 2020 by graduate student workers. Today, Virginia higher education workers from all job classifications work together to make their voices heard. 

What is wall-to-wall?

Whether you are term faculty, an undergraduate student worker, or a staff member with 20 years in state service, all Virginia state higher education workers who are not executive administration, representatives of HR, and law enforcement are eligible to join. 

Regardless of your program, department, division, or office, United Campus Workers of Virginia is your union.
