Princeton Graduate Students United is a group of graduate students committed to winning the right and the opportunity to have a say in the terms and conditions of our employment here at Princeton. Through ground-up, grassroots organization, we are identifying the needs and concerns of Princeton graduate student workers and the ways in which we can improve our relationship with the University and with each other. We are researchers, teachers, scientists, and humanists. We are of diverse backgrounds, origins, gender identities, and colors. We are building a community that transcends the divisions of our disciplines. Our goals include, but are not limited to:
- Better compensation for researchers and teachers
- Improved health care coverage
- Increased protection from arbitrary termination, sexual harassment, and discrimination
- Transparent and effective grievance procedures
- Affordable and acceptable housing for all grads
PGSU is holding a rally for Power & Protection for Grad Workers on Wednesday, Feb. 15. at Noon ET. If you’re in the area, register to attend. If you’re able to, please support this young labor org with a contribution!
