UCSC just initiated disciplinary proceedings against dozens of grads for strike actions 6 months ago.

Meanwhile, grads who have been fired for striking (including me) are apparently permanently barred from teaching. This is effective expulsion from our PhDs.

Thank you all for the outpouring of support! Our fight continues as we organize for a UC-wide ULP strike through @uaw2865. We are also raising funds to support our 80+ fired grads through the summer. Please donate to our strike fund, and share widely: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-fund-for-striking-workers-at-ucsc

For more info, follow @payusmoreucsc @SpreadtheStrike @colasolidarity. If you are a grad worker at any UC, please sign the ULP strike pledge. Let's use our collective power to get everyone reinstated and get a COLA! Solidarity forever! #ULPstrike4COLA https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ULP_Strike_Pledge
