Outrageous: University Grad Assistants Strike Over Unpaid Labor

Graduate assistants at a university have gone on strike after they were informed that they would no longer be paid for their work. These assistants, who often work long hours teaching courses and conducting research, are appalled at the decision, which they say is "unconscionable." Many of them are struggling to make ends meet without their paychecks, and the strike is an effort to bring attention to their situation. The university has yet to respond to the strike, but the situation has gained national attention and sparked a larger conversation about the treatment of graduate students and other university employees.
