If you’re a worker in the NYC area, sign this pledge not to break any NYC-area higher ed strikes (in addition to part-time faculty at The New School, workers at Rutgers, Fordham, Pratt, and CUNY are all currently in negotiations).
Recently, administration at The New School, whose part-time faculty are in the third week of a strike, sent out an email seeking temps to break the strike and grade striking faculty’s students, which they then framed as a mistake after the email was widely circulated and criticized.
We need to show loudly and clearly that higher ed institutions don’t run without their workers, and the workers are united across institutions, within communities.
