Agreement Reached in Historic Student Strike

The UC system has made an agreement with the academic workers union to end the month long strike. Academic student employees will see salary bumps of over 55% and there will be additional increases in Los Angeles and the Bay Area. According to the president of the bargaining union, this agreement is “a huge deal.” 

This new plan will make UC grad students some of the best supported students in higher education. However, many base salaries are still not enough to meet high cost of living conditions at many UC campuses. We must continue to support unions and advocate for our students!
