Why come? We need you to help plan a response to UM’s recent actions:

– UM unilaterally raised your prescription drug copays. A for-profit company now decides what drugs you are allowed to have, not your doctor.

– Residence Hall Librarians are bargaining to join our contract. UM says that their work is worth less than that of GSIs, and that they will be fired if they become pregnant.

– Last year, we gave up part of our wage increase to pay for improved child care access. The University is refusing to spend it.

– Some departments are hiring undergraduates to do GSI work, but not giving them benefits or tuition waivers. How does this cost-cutting affect the quality of education at UM? How does it affect your job?
