And not just recent pleas, but ones made during the first few months of @ProfessorJVH’s time at WMU. @PIOatWMU @WMUAAUP

@ProfessorJVH relying on labor-hostile lawyers despite the ongoing pleas from all our academic labor unions-@TAUAFT, @PIOatWMU, & @WMUAAUP-about the abuse being directed at employees. Could someone please explain to him that actions speak louder than words? @AAUP @AFT @chronicle

BREAKING: Grad Workers Vote for Tentative Agreement (TA) with U-M
Winning a living wage for most PhD students and major gains in harassment protections, police abolition, and parent & transgender grad care, the TA is a testament to the power of our strike.

Proof that you *can* lead an academic institution with integrity while supporting the people that make the university run!

Good morning to everyone at @UMich EXCEPT those that are working to further promote systemic inequities and trying to break the strike.
Enjoy the sun on the line today friends 🌞😎

We will win a living wage and a fair contract. @UMich can do the right thing now, save the costs of its failed strikebreaking attempts, and stop the ongoing disruption to the education of almost 50,000 students.

It is **illegal** for public employees in Michigan to strike, yet a judge has just refused to issue an injunction against @geo3550's strike .
What's going on?
One of my biggest hobbyhorses is that labor folks should get the words "can" and "can't" out of their vocabulary.

A judge has now ruled twice against the University of Michigan’s efforts to force striking graduate students back to work.
Judge Carol Kuhnke declined to issue a restraining order or grant a preliminary injunction against the 2,000 grad students of @geo3550 who are on strike.

Absolutely unacceptable and gross. Employee concerns are to be listened to, not crushed with legal action. @WMUAAUP @PIOatWMU @WesternMichU @WesternHerald @geo3550

Today in court after admitting they were only able to find a single undergrad to testify in their favor, @UMich’s lawyers compared GEO’s strike to domestic violence. Comparing striking grad workers to domestic abusers is completely reprehensible. 🧵1/4

Good morning @RutgersU! It’s Day 285 without a contract and DAY 2 of the STRIKE! We are feeling excited to head back to the picket line! See you out there!

Incredible news for our colleagues in @geo3550 and a huge win for labor more broadly! Hold the line!

Got a few minutes to spare today? Make a quick call to support our friends in @geo3550!
It’s more important now than ever that universities in Michigan, like @UMich and @WesternMichU listen to the reasonable demands of graduate workers to be treated with dignity and respect.
Grad Employees' Org UMich@geo3550
⚡️☎️ PHONE ZAP ☎️⚡️ Starting tomorrow (Friday) morning - call to tell Academic HR (734-763-8938) and Provost Laurie McCauley (734-764-9290) to drop the attestation forms and all strike-breaking tactics. Call multiple times and call often. #RingRingFairContract 1/2

The writing should be on the walls for @WesternMichU: Grad students deserve to be taken seriously and listened to, not lawyered up against. @WMUAAUP @geo3550 @wwmtnews @WesternHerald
WMU-AAUP@WMUAAUP
It’s time for universities like @UMich and @WesternMichU to be responsive to faculty and grad students instead of calling on “the law” to deal with them @AAUP @geo3550 @MLive @wwmtnews @AFTHigherEd thewmuaaup.com/2023/04/05/wmu…

We stand in solidarity with our colleagues in @geo3550 and call on @UMich to provide a living wage for grad employees now!!! 24k is shameful and disrespectful to its core.
Grad Employees' Org UMich@geo3550
Tonight our members moved to STRIKE! Join us on the Diag this WEDNESDAY at 10:24 AM as we WALK OUT and walk away from $24K—we’re striking for a living wage! When we stand together, we stand strong!
