EVENT: http://tinyurl.com/ojhuwn5
This is an emergency meeting open to ALL interested members of the campus community (and beyond) to 1) discuss the proposed $300 million cut to the UW and the quasi-privatization of the UW system and 2) figure out a way we can most effectively defend our university and ourselves from the attack.
The cut will predictably lead to layoffs, wage stagnation and decline, reductions in student services, and the degradation of educational quality. The new structural changes threaten the integrity of shared governance, reduce student and faculty control, open the doors to runaway tuition increases, and otherwise increase managerial authority to the detriment of workers and students on campus. This is what the Administration has been working for in some form or another since 2011 with the failed New Badger Partnership and then the Human Resources Design Project, both of which we opposed.
The only option is to organize and fight. Join us on Wednesday!
Held in Humanities 2650
