MOVING TO FRONT FROM NOVEMBER 10--AN INTERESTING DISCUSSION OF WHAT FACULTY SHOULD DO IF TAs GO ON STRIKE; OTHER COMMENTS WELCOME
Inflation and cost of living are looming large, although I don't see graduate TAs getting 54k per year, but as a bargaining position, it's probably good to aim high. An LA Times piece here. Comments are open for more links or for information from those in the UC system knowledgeable about the issues, the negotiations, etc.
