The University of Michigan has decided to cut the pay of graduate student instructors (GSIs) striking for better wages and dignified working conditions.

As one of the largest departments on campus, and with GSRAs and faculty vastly outnumbering GSIs, Chemistry is uniquely positioned to take care of those coworkers who have lost pay in order to win a better contract for everyone.

GSRAs have not had their pay withheld, but will receive whatever benefits the GSIs win by striking. Donating is the most concrete way GSRAs and Faculty/Staff/Lecturers can support GSI friends and coworkers.

Please donate what you can, and get in touch if you would like to be involved in helping to organize this effort by contacting one of the department representatives.
