Good news: Administration was at the negotiating table yesterday and made some movement.

Bad news: Administration's "best" offer is still well below today's cost of living increases.

Good news: UPI 4100 and our supporters are focused, united, and strong!

[In the Loop with Sasha-Ann Simons @WBEZIntheLoop]

Teachers of public Illinois universities are on strike over pay and workload, and this comes as state spending on higher education continues to get cut.

We spoke with the union president of Chicago State University and @LAPhilip for the latest.

This is Shawn and they did an awesome job

[StrikeForEIU @StrikeForEIU]

@UPI4100atGSU Same tactics here! (Oh look, they've got the same lawyer here, too...) #FairContractNow #StrikeForEIU

[StrikeForEIU @StrikeForEIU]

“We sent our proposal last night assuming that the administration would take appropriate time to consider it and continue our discussion together in the morning. Instead, they sent us a final offer an hour later & sent the media a middle-of-the-night press release." #StrikeForEIU

[The Daily Eastern News @DEN_news]

Eastern’s chapter of University Professionals of Illinois, @eiu_upi, responded to Eastern’s statement of their final offer for a new contract and criticized the administrative hired lawyer Mark Bennett for “double booking.” #eiu #illinoisstrike #eiustrike

The administration tells ours students that faculty and advisors are not needed to keep the university going. Our students know better.
