You’d think this plain gray & white label would bore me but SHUT YOUR DIRTY MOUTH!! I actually love it. Yes, it gets extra points for the nostalgia, but I also find the black font calming on the gray. The white bits, the two logos and the white print, look cool when the label rotates. AND I can’t resist “360-degree sound! The oldest recorded sound business, Columbia gets it’s name from where it was founded, the U.S. capital.

Deliriously happy to hear Temple University's president resigned. He made a huge bollocks of things in less than two years. The violence issue is not his fault, but the way the university handled the TA/GA strike was a disaster.

"Temple University’s faculty union is moving forward with a vote of no confidence next month against three officials, including the university president."

^ Good. The way the uni handled the TA/GA strike was atrocious--and if Wingard's vision for Temple means destroying it, I'm not on board. I landed on Temple U. for my undergrad for a reason; it wasn't my only choice. My professors were overall fantastic, as was my experience.

Exciting news from the ! This still needs to be approved by vote of our union members - but unlike the last tentative agreement that forced on us, our negotiating team and union board are actually recommending this tentative agreement.

Thank you all for your support in getting us this far!

TLDR: We really could use any donation you can afford (even $5!) to our strike fund to help 250+ striking grad students (and their children) get their healthcare reinstated. out here trying to kill us for striking.

As a reminder: wasn't required to cut off striking workers' health insurance and tuition remission - in fact it's the first university to EVER do so in the history of America 😲

decided that putting striking grad workers' lives (and the lives of their spouses and dependants) at real risk is acceptable retaliation for the temerity to ask for a living wage in 2023.

Our contract expired a full year before we went on strike.

Now that we're in MONTH TWO of the at , here's a quick update:

• My health insurance has been cut off AGAIN, and a bill for ~$1,000 has been applied to my account
• The medication I need to, ya know, live, costs ~$4,500/mo
• My tuition bill, usually $0 because of my Fellowship, sits at ~$14,000
• My pay for February was $0

But somehow expects me to come up with $19,500 by March 9th. That's the same amount they pay me in a YEAR.

I'm so disappointed in --which is a shame. I've always been proud to be an Owl. I was a cheerleader in my freshman & sophomore years. I do think of myself as .

The new president seems like a jerk, & what the university is doing to TAs/RAs during the flies in the face of what I've always considered the university's ideals to be.

That time (today) when tried to toot its own horn by Tweeting about some "tech commercialization" research their faculty did that they think is important - but when they linked to the publication featuring the article about it, the front page features a story calling out about their god-awful response to the ongoing 🤣

Delighted to get on the mailing list for the -- thank you @Bender Whoever is behind those emails is doing a glorious job: not just information but uplift, solidarity, encouragement, voices of lots of folks affected by the situation, all the media coverage, and great support from the larger academic community. Again I say, shame on . (I'm a alum and I stand with TUGSA.) Sorry I live too far away to stand on the line with you.

In this offer, offered just enough of a salary increase so that their graduate workers would no longer be eligible for SNAP (food stamps). It looks like 's only goal with this offer was to keep that egg off their face, not actually supporting their workers with a living wage.

The at isn't over until membership votes on the proposed deal, no matter what The Philadelphia Inquirer says.

Don't believe newspaper articles that are simply republished press releases written by admin. Notice there's no comment from the Union included in the published "article".
