Support NYU Student Workers strike

At New Year's Eve dinner sev- eral of our friends expressed concern over how the NYU graduate student workers strike was progressing. So here's the latest info on how you can support the strikers.
In 2002, GSOC won the first contract for graduate assistants at a private university. That contract improved the lives of graduate students dramatically and was praised by the NYU administration. Now, thanks to a regressive Bush administration ruling, NYU is refusing to bargain a second contract with GSOC. GSOC members voted by a margin of 85% to strike for a new contract, and the strike began on Nov. 9.

Support is welcome at picket lines
