March 29 Graduate Center Students Assembly, Part II
Graduate Center Students Assembly, Part II
Tuesday, March 29, 6:30-8:30pm
365 Fifth Ave, Room 5409
– bring friends & snacks –
Come gather with masters and doctoral students across (ideally!) all GC programs to check in after a busy few months, hear reports and reflections, and build for what comes after Cuomo’s April 1 budget deadline
(for which $485 million budget cuts to CUNY have been halted for now!)[democracynow.org]
and
the
ongoing PSC strike authorization campaign. We’ll also discuss how Chicago, SUNY, and
University of Puerto Rico students and teachers are struggling on similar education issues.
At the Graduate Center, we want to create a larger, transparent, cohesive network of activated students in each program to have better communication / coordination / direction as we go forward… We would love your input in manifesting this.
