Asked Questions from the Unions in the Advances of Student Labor Relations at the Rutgers College and the University’s Health Facilities

During a virtual town hall on Sunday, Rutgers masters student Michelle O’Malley said that those closest to their learning and the university deserve more than merely to be survivalists.

While the university is adamant that most classes will continue, the union is expecting the action to halt instruction and non critical research. Clinicians at the university’s health facilities “will continue to perform patient care duties and critical research, while curbing voluntary work,” the unions’ release said.

The president said that negotiations have been constant for several weeks. Significant and substantial progress has been made, as I have said before, and I believe there are just a few outstanding issues. We will be negotiating for as long as it takes to get to an agreement and will not engage in personal attacks or misinformation.

The administration is unaware that we are going to fight for equal wages for equal work, a living wage for all, real job security, race and gender equity, and a fair salary increase. We have no other option but to go on strike in order to build a university that values workers and students.
