You're right. People told to wear masks acted like they were being loaded onto trains for Auschwitz. People who lose elections call for angry mobs to ransack our capitol to overturn them. A governor who gets disagreement from a corporation goes on a rampage against said corporation. Politicians who see a guy in a dress reading stories to children shriek about grooming. There is manufactured drama everywhere.
Why is she holding a #metoo sign?
So then take care of the TA’s … these striking profs for the little time they actually teach / instruct draw good salaries have great benefits , with a nice state of NJ pension upon retirement. So why should the over taxed in New Jersey feel the need to be sympathetic. The current students and debt holders will pay.
They're laughably predictable and angry. Every generation of conservatives tries to fight change and tries to preserve the world they grew up in, which was a world the prior generation of conservatives hated and fought to prevent. And every generation of conservatives can't figure this out.
They don't have a clue. Just throw words around.

My only experience with unions consisted of two summer jobs where in both positions I was informed I was working too fast.

And people who saw someone not wearing a mask or refusing to get a shot called for them to lose their jobs and become homeless.
People who lost elections put together a now factually proven conspiracy theory that the winner colluded with russia to win and harped on it for now 7 straight years.
And a governor who got disagreement from businesses shut their water and electricity off, stripped them of their business license and fined hundreds of thousands of dollars.
;)
you can't argue with an zealot and he's a zealot
Agreed.
And the Marxist branding is undeniable:
#Metoo is a part of this?
Looks like they're having a blast outside today.
You've got no response because you lost the argument. You never had one. Just a what-aboutism.
Looks like you failed History
Groucho or Chico ?Agreed.

Let me interrupt with the latest from President Holloway:
| April 10, 2023 Dear Members of the Rutgers Community, I think that it is important that you receive regular, accurate updates with respect to the strike that has been called by three of our faculty unions. As you know, after several weeks of intense negotiations, mediators from the State were asked, beginning last Friday, to sit in on our contract negotiations with the AAUP-AFT, Rutgers Adjunct Faculty Union, and AAUP-BHSNJ. By Sunday afternoon it was clear that the outstanding issues were not moving toward resolution, and Governor Murphy summoned our negotiators and the negotiators from our faculty unions to meet in the Statehouse, along with representatives of his office, to come to an agreement. We are encouraged by Governor Murphy’s request and genuinely welcome his leadership. We are hopeful that we can quickly come to a resolution of the remaining outstanding issues. The Governor also asked me personally to delay taking legal action asking the courts to order strikers back to work. I agreed to the Governor’s important request while it appears that progress can be made. Obviously, if there is no movement towards an agreement, we will have no choice but to take legal action to assure the continued academic progress of our students and prevent irreparable harm. This is especially important for the thousands of students who are finishing their academic careers at Rutgers and are only a few weeks away from earning their degrees. Negotiations at the Statehouse began at about noon today and are continuing. In the meantime, our campuses are open and operating, including all academic buildings and libraries. We encourage students to continue attending their classes and doing their coursework, and we ask faculty and staff to continue doing their work as we carry out the business of the university. As a final but important note, we did receive reports today of classes being disrupted by protesters. In one instance, protesters actually entered a class where a critical exam was being conducted. While I respect the right of people to peacefully protest, there is no excuse for interfering with classes being taught by faculty who are choosing to continue with their jobs and meet their obligations to our students. I hope the union leadership will join me in urging their members to be respectful of our students and supportive of their academic progress. Sincerely, Jonathan Holloway President and University Professor |
It’s not BS. The Universities and Colleges pay Adjuncts a rate per credit. But I’m sure you know, because you sound quite intelligent and important, that a lot more goes into teaching than just showing up to teach a class. A LOT goes into the preparation to teach a class and A LOT goes into what happens after the class is over for the day. When you take into consideration all the hours before, after, and during the teaching of the class that are needed into delivering a successful learning experience for students, the hourly rate is $10 per hour. Hard to believe, but, it’s true. Furthermore, there is no “paying your dues,” as you mention because no adjuncts are ever promoted. The majority of adjuncts work 30 years as an adjunct without ever gettting promoted until they finally collect social security. Facts! The educational model in the United States has changed. Your children who attend university are being taught by adjuncts who don’t even make a living wage. When full-time professors retire or leave the university/college, they just hire more adjuncts to replace the full-time professors. There are more adjuncts teaching on campus than full-time professors.
Interrupting a previously scheduled exam? Arrest the bastards and terminate the if they are employees.
Big yikes

From the Encyclopedia of Marxism:
"An injury to one is an injury to all"
"
Industrial Workers of the World
The IWW was founded in Chicago in June 1905 at a convention of two hundred socialists, anarchists, and radical trade unionists from all over the United States (mainly the Western Federation of Miners) who were opposed to the policies of the American Federation of Labor (AFL). An injury to one is an injury to all.
The convention, which took place on June 27, 1905, was then referred to as the “Industrial Congress” or the “Industrial Union Convention”—it would later be known as the First Annual Convention of the IWW. It is considered one of the most important events in the history of industrial unionism and of the American labor movement in general.
The IWW’s early organizers included William D. (“Big Bill”) Haywood, Daniel De Leon, Eugene V. Debs, Thomas J Hagerty, Lucy Parsons, Mary Harris Jones (commonly known as “Mother Jones”), William Trautmann, Vincent Saint John, Ralph Chaplin, and many others."

They’ll end up coming to an agreement, the professors and grad students will get a healthy raise and tuition will go up, this thread won’t change that.
Without making any comments on the validity of each side in the negotiations, I do think it’s funny from a purely comedic timing perspective that the strike happened to start during the first warm week of the year.

Interred in the Kremlin wall?
If that’s all true, then why are people taking the jobs? Why is there a huge supply of adjunct processors ready to work?
While we’re raising tuition — can we level the river dorms for while we’re at it and rebuild those in grand lux fashion too?
They know about as much about Marxism as they do about Christianity or the Constitution: whatever Fox told them.
Lol! In my very first lab in Ceramic Engineering I made a ceramic shot glass. While you could specialize in traditional ceramics, everything else was in very cutting edge advanced materials (electronic ceramics, fiber optics, composites, battery technologies, and much more). We were 3D printing in ceramics in the late 90s! But even the traditional ceramics is very physics based....

The real problem is that colleges aren’t actually incentivized to keep their costs down: a more expensive price tag can actually signal a higher quality school.

Adjunct professors are more or less like rented mules for RU. Let them work the Gig economy with Uber or Doordash if they want to make more income.

Everyone who follows the educational system at any level knows the money is in the administration. Principals, administrators, consultants, they have always made the money in education. Here is another secret, hospital administrators can make a lot more money than some of the doctors.Universities are no longer hiring full time tenured professors, A report on adjuncts says many make less than $3,500 per course and live in poverty. while administrators positions and salaries have skyrocketed.
