At the last General Membership Meeting, GEO members voted to begin a strike drive, in preparation for and with the hope to avoid a strike.
Part of the organizing effort that any member can participate in is going office door to office door to talk with fellow members about their experiences as graduate employees and address any questions or thoughts they may have. If you’re interested in doing this but are unsure of how to make the approach, the Direct Action Working Group has the answer.
Join us Monday, November 19th at 4:00pm for a workshop on door to door organizing. The workshop will be in the GEO office, 815 W. Van Buren, Ste. 203 (above Giordano’s). You can RSVP for it on our Facebook event page; be sure to invite your colleagues, too: http://www.facebook.com/events/346430435452775/
Can’t make it but still want to help? E-mail us at organizing@uic-geo.net and we’ll be in touch.
