#TUGSA approved the new contract #TempleU offered, after weeks of striking. Congrats to TUGSA for standing firm even after #Temple administrators revoked health care & did all kinds of other nasty things to the striking grad workers.

The #TUGSA strike is over. It sounds like the grad students are happy with the results, so I am happy.

Well, this is a devastating analysis of a public university president’s ties to private equity and what it says about the current strike . #Temple #tugsa https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/jason-wingards-edtech-griftopia/

"serious anti-labor action by a major American employer, [that] sends an ominous signal to other employers everywhere"

Good piece putting what's going on at #Temple in context of a long & sobering history of #UnionBusting

Here's the letter that my department sent to #TempleUniversity leadership, asking them to restore tuition remission and health care benefits to #TUGSA students on #strike and negotiate in good faith. The president's office responded with an email addressed as "Hello Matt." ?

We're currently inviting signatures from other faculty. So far, about 30 faculty members from Temple's music and dance school have signed. https://forms.gle/Q28UShY2ZbhiMcHf6

@Bender
There’s national coverage of the #TUGSA strike this morning.

The movers lost my grad school diploma and this month I was planning to order a copy and frame it for my new office upstairs.

But fuck that, I'm donating to the TUGSA strike fund instead.

@Bender Now that is some seriously petty bullshit, Temple. I hope #tugsa sues the ever loving shit out of you. What kind of shite uni doesn’t understand that it’s the grad students the hold colleges and unis together, and you’ve just shit all over them? I hope they all decide to transfer somewhere else.

Apparently Temple University is openly admitting to violating labor laws by retaliating against striking student workers. #TUGSA #TUGSAstrike
