Rutgers AAUP-AFT Academic Worker Union@ruaaup10 Apr 2023
For the first time in the history of Rutgers University, all three faculty, grad, EOF, and postdoc unions have voted to go on strike. Monday morning, we are ON STRIKE. See you on the picket line. #RUOnStrike

UCSD told workers they can only afford 85% of the typical number of TA jobs next year. Meanwhile, the UC Regents voted to give Chancellor Pradeep Khosla a $500,000 raise. @UofCalifornia has the money for our contract. They just lack the will to implement it

cash surpluses + underpaid workers, an ongoing tradition in higher ed that must be ended.
Grad Employees' Org UMich@geo355010 Apr 2023
Welcome to Week 3! With its cash surplus last year, the university could pay us all a living wage x12 times over. Here’s a looks back at Week 2.

Temple says they want more cops for "security." They already have the biggest, most expensive campus police force in the country. Cops are not the answer. We say no to TUPD and all police! instagram.com/p/Cb0JqDNrzhs/

The wave of bomb threats against HBCUs is terrifying and should be of concern to ALL academic institutions, academic workers, and people who care about learning, and liberation.

apparently to @JasonWingard and @TempleUniv bringing in an expert in repression is a safety enhancement? 🤔 What about allowing online teaching, improving ventilation & access to (k)n95 masks, distributing health resources to the community? raftcaucus.org/2022/01/20/ra…

An entire building at Bronx Community College has no HVAC, lots of leaks, lots of mold, and one person has a hole in his office ceiling. Trash from upstairs sometimes falls through this hole.

From r/Temple Reddit: "Yesterday was nuts & only makes me more anxious. It wasn’t even that bad last semester. Wtf temple? Cramming us into them little ass classrooms like sardines. …bc ya know SOCIAL DISTANCING but I guess Temple was just like fuck that.”
Staff are working in person at School of Professional Studies....while 100% of students are online. Why do workers need to be there physically if there aren't any students there to benefit from their presence?

We're asking @BrownUniversity to bring back public reporting of COVID rates on campus, as they've told us to expect "significant levels of Omicron transmission" this spring. Why not report unless you've got something to hide? Sign our open letter here: buff.ly/35avkYb

All decisions about @TempleUniv re-opening must be made by medical professionals, rank-and-file employees, and North Philly community members; not university administrators! @JasonWingard @TempleUnivCA @PhillyMayor #maketherightchoice

.@TempleUniv should NOT re-open before spring break or before Philly's 7 day average is below 50 cases/day! We're in a worse place now than when virtual learning decision was first made, makes no sense! @JasonWingard @TempleUnivCA @PhillyMayor #maketherightchoice

It's outrageous that @TempleUniv profs with vulnerable family members at home are (once again!) compelled to risk loved ones' lives @JasonWingard @TempleUnivCA @PhillyMayor #maketherightchoice

.@JasonWingard, we need to reopen @TempleUniv SAFELY! Mandate boosters! Require KN95s or N95 masks! Allow flexible work! Increase testing! Delay reopening until these measures are in place! #maketherightchoice @TempleUnivCA @PhillyMayor

Not the main point of the chart, but it's also a useful illustration of the politics of school catchments. Sorry, this is going to be very wonky, but tldr private "investments" in public schools aren't just inequitable, they actively disrupt the whole system.
