Our grad students (and everyone) deserve to be able to live while studying and working! Please pay them enough.

#COLA for all who work at UC. It shouldn’t be a privilege to decide between food, rent and/or medical security? I know that I spend over 75% of my UCSC wages to live with myself and my child.

Students should not have to face homelessness, full stop.

Mission

We are TAs, GSIs, Tutors, Readers, Student Researchers, Fellows, Postdocs, and Academic Researchers at UCSC. We are represented by our union, UAW 4811 (Formerly UAW 2865 and UAW 5810). In 2019/2020, workers at UCSC withheld labor for a Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA), and in 2022, our statewide union struck for 6 weeks over a COLA, arguing for a 54k base wage for all academic workers with the goal of raising the living conditions of academic workers across the state. Now, we are on strike for Divestment, Disclosure, Transitional funding for researchers, & Amnesty for all protestors.
