"I am not surprised by those who attempt to propagate hatred. I am surprised that my own university—my home for four years—has abandoned me."
Every line of USC valedictorian Asna Tabassum's statement is brilliant, heartbreaking and infuriating https://t.co/eL3V9sW6F6
NEW: @USC and newly unionized graduate student workers reach tentative agreement with big boost in pay, stronger anti-harassment protections. Both sides hail it as the nation’s best agreement among private universities. @gswocusc https://t.co/lcHsobzGe9
USC administration has until November 28th to come to the table with fair offers and stop committing unfair labor practices. If they fail to do so, GSWs will strike starting Tues. 11/28. Up until then, admin has the power to agree to a fair contract and keep @USC running.⌛️
Hear from Kayla Love, a PhD Candidate in the Chemistry Department, about why she’s fighting for arbitrable protections for Graduate Student Workers facing workplace discrimination.
State Senator Lola Smallwood-Cuevas @LolaForSenate has USC Graduate Student Workers' back! Watch her message of support for our fight for a fair contract as we prepare to take our Strike Authorization Vote. 🗳️ @USC@USCGradSchool
@USC administration claims that Graduate Student Worker stipends are "among the most competitive in the nation."
USC Graduate Student Workers know our wages are neither competitive nor livable.
The moment 400+ Graduate Student Workers urged our Bargaining Team to call for a Strike Authorization Vote. We are united in our demands. It’s time for a first contract. It’s time for @USC administration to bargain fairly!
Today, 300+ Graduate Student Workers at USC came out United for Workplace Justice! We delivered a letter signed by ~1,500 GSWs to USC Admin saying we will do whatever it takes to win real protections against harassment & discrim, support for int'l student workers, & a union shop.
Stepp Mayes is one of countless Graduate Student Workers (GSWs) demanding lower costs & expanded coverage for the thousands of us who rely on USC Student Health Insurance. Get involved in the fight - link in bio!
Jackie Johnson is one of countless USC Graduate Student Workers (GSWs) demanding a survivor-centered grievance process and interim measures for GSWs who face harassment, discrimination, and bullying.
Together, we can win this and other big changes at the bargaining table!
