The cost of college keeps climbing for students while average pay for those teaching them is decreasing.

In Roxbury, officially known as the “heart of Black culture in Boston,” the government demolished the Dudley Street Church in the 1960s and replaced it with a police station. Such "urban renewal" projects also displaced thousands in the area. More info: https://t.co/pVbnqu70Or

Remember that kid you gave a “C” to in your state politics course? He is now in the state legislature and is about to end tenure.

[Student Debt Crisis Center (SDCC) @DebtCrisisOrg]

On this #MothersDay, we'd like to honor all mothers while recognizing the student debt crisis as a gender equity issue and something women and parents struggle with. Women are disproportionately impacted by student debt -- this is not okay. The time to #CancelStudentDebt is now!

A new study finds that working-class union households hold nearly 4X as much median wealth ($201,240) as the typical working-class nonunion household ($52,221)

This suggests that union membership vastly increases wealth for working-class families

OUSD has failed to come to the table in good faith. Educators will be on the picket line tomorrow, on strike for our students & for Oakland schools. Join us on the picket line. We will continue to negotiate in good faith & hope the district does the same. #Unite4OaklandStudents

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

At an event hosted by Patriotic Millionaires today Jeff Clements says:

“The top 100 wealthiest among us have 60,000 times as much political power as everyone else. Concentrated wealth is concentrated power. It’s wrong, dangerous, and Americans know it.”

"Florida’s attack on #academicfreedom, tenure, CRT, & gender studies is ultimately much more than an attack on so-called wokeism...
It’s an attack on 1 of the checks & balances—the university—our democracy can’t live without."

STRIKING WORKS!

@MsMagazine #okboomer . When you didn’t stand up for Mills College and sided with the administration over a recent grad, we knew the torch for feminism had slipped from your grasp. Do better. #investigatemillscollege

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

I want to congratulate the workers at @ruaaup for taking the courageous step to go on strike. You are inspiring the labor movement across this country. I am proud to stand in solidarity with you.

With antisemitism on the rise globally, it’s crucial for the Jewish community to know they’re not fighting alone. Retweet this video with #StandUptoJewishHate to show your support.

[Scholars for a New Deal for Higher Education @SFNDHE]

The multi tiers of contingency - all the better to keep faculty fractured, competing w/ each other, unstable, insecure. "Over 68% of fac members held contingent appointms in fall 21, including FT NT-track (13%), full-time with no tenure system (7%), & part-time (48%) faculty."

NOW: @Harvard is hosting an event for its grad students to sign up for federal food assistance. You know, because it doesn't pay them enough.

@hgsuuaw grad student union pres. @kljungz told me about it this morning:

The surge in campus organizing is an expression of – & response to – the ongoing austerity in public higher ed
