From our official statement, which can be read in its entirety in an earlier post: “On Friday September 30th, at 3pm, GAU leadership will be holding an open informational meeting in Lawson 141. At 4pm, the door will close and we will ask dues paying members to authorize your GAU bargaining team to call for a strike if no significant progress is being made at the bargaining table.”
I want to reiterate that if the authorization passes, it doesn’t mean we’re going on strike on the 30th, only that you give the bargaining team the authority to declare a strike as a last resort.
If it does come to a strike, the responsibility lies with an administration that considers sitting at a table saying “no” to be bargaining in good faith. We remain committed to negotiations, and hope that it doesn’t come to a strike. However, we have to prepare for the worst.
