GAU and Other IEA Locals Press Conference

The GA United Executive Committee sent a letter to the administration a couple of weeks ago informing the University of our concern over the breakdown of negotiations and the administration’s refusal to budge on any significant issues for grad assistants. We believe that this situation is dire and have agreed to file a letter of intent to strike this week. It is up to grad assistants to organize for power and decide whether or not to strike; however, the GA United bargaining team and officers believe we it is our responsibility to keep the possibility of a strike on the table.

For more information, join GAU and the other IEA unions on campus on:
