UC Santa Cruz Graduate Student Workers Withhold Final Grades During Wage Strike
Some students' final grades are being withheld amid graduate student workers' demands for higher pay.
SANTA CRUZ (CBS SF) — After demanding a cost of living increase from the University of California at Santa Cruz in September, the school’s unionized graduate student workers are now on strike.
According to a Twitter feed run by the striking workers, some of their student’s final semester grades are being withheld as the workers demand higher wages. That’s in the face of a high cost of living and repeated silence from the UCSC administration following union demands for labor negotiations.
