ok, I'll admit I'll never participate in a protest (not my style lol) but I've got to support the students on this one. Though UW isn't the only place that has this problem, UM-Ann Arbor, Michigan State, and so many other public institutions have this issue. Hopefully, we can get something worked out in the next few years and hope this was just a blip on the radar, but I could see it getting worse. Hopefully UW and the other schools can get their stuff straight and not have to worry abut budgets
I know what the problem is, I'm a libertarian and they're giving off socialist vibes. They're preaching against my beliefs. I'm glad I thought that out because under the current system they do have a valid point.
I was in Archeology when this went down. Hard to concentrate with that amplified woman's voice. And the chanting...
I don't like this protest and I'm trying to figure out why. I guess I see education as any other service. If you don't like it, take your business elsewhere. But since the school is public, that doesn't exactly hold water. We are all owners of it to some extent and thusly claim some right to how it's run. So I'm back to not knowing why I don't like the strike.
From a geophysics graduate student: We appreciate the solidarity. I am a first generation college student. My dad is a heavy equipment operator, I am a working class kid. My graduate stipend is meager enough that if I get a flat tire on my car, I have to save up for months to replace it. I wish people would talk about that instead. Not corporations.
@Squatchmichael The student tuition increase in getting out of control. They have to understand students dont have money to pay all these extravagant fees this website called skyslip
