The SIUC Faculty Association (FA) is the organization that represents approximately 700 tenure-track and tenured Faculty in collective bargaining with Southern Illinois University. As such, it is the Faculty  voice on all work-related issues. The FA was organized on the Carbondale campus in the late 1980s and won the right to represent all tenured and tenure track faculty in an election conducted by the Ilinois Educational Labor Relations Board in November 1996. It is affiliated with both the Illinois Education Association (IEA) and the National Education Association (NEA).
