EDUCATION JUSTICE University of Alaska student workers union members protest for contract, after judge bars strike
May 2, 2024 // Hundreds of University of Alaska graduate students protested in marches on Monday at the Fairbanks and Anchorage campuses to increase pressure on the university system as it negotiates a contract with their union. The marches are a step down from a strike the Alaska Graduate Workers Association planned, after a Fairbanks Superior Court judge issued a temporary restraining order on Friday at the request of the University system. Student employees say the marches come as their window to negotiate closes.
