MGG students continue ***ON STRIKE*** until further notice. We love our work, but must stand for a fair contract with livable wages, true accessibility & transportation benefits among other things at UC. Join us at the picket line in solidarity! fairucnow.org/strikefaq/ 🙌🪧🫡

We did a DEI survey last summer in @MGGucdavis - 42% of my grad group would struggle or be unable to cover basic needs if faced with a $1000 emergency expense.
The contract we need has been a long time coming
@UofCalifornia
ALT “ From our perspective, we as graduate students perform the research that is the lifeblood of the university and are barely paid enough to survive here." "...there is so little support for grad students ...the line between 'grad school is hard' and 'exploitation' is very very fine."
