From our colleagues at GSOC-UAW Local 2110, the union for graduate workers at NYU:
On Feb. 19, 2025, NYU suspended three more student-workers, all from the Department of Art and Public Policy, for participating in a study-in at Bobst Library on December 11, 2024. This includes an international student, who will be deported immediately, and resulted in the loss of the students’ on-campus jobs, their primary means of supporting themselves.
We call on the University to immediately reverse the suspensions of these three student-workers, who have been subjected to draconian punishment for upholding the very values of principled nonviolent activism the University claims to champion.
