UC Faculty Walkout - September 24Teachers next? Yes we can?
In solidarity with students and staff
In defense of public education in California
Under the cover of the summer months, UC administration has pushed through a program of tuition hikes, enrollment cuts, layoffs, furloughs, and increased class sizes that harms students and jeopardizes the livelihoods of the most vulnerable university employees. These decisions fundamentally compromise the mission of the University of California. They are complicit with the privatization of public education, and they have been made in a manner that flouts the principle of shared governance at the core of the UC faculty's capacity to guide the future of the University in accordance with its mission.
On September 24, in solidarity with UC staff and students, faculty throughout the University of California system will walk out in defense of public education.
