Harvard has no excuse for refusing to support its education and research mission by giving a fair contract to our researchers and teaching faculty!

Harvard is under intense budgetary pressure, yet there are many people at the university receiving enormous compensation packages: www.harvardmagazine.com/2024/05/top-... I assume these numbers haven't changed, otherwise Harvard presumably would have announced it.

Harvard teachers, researchers, and students! Please join us and the HGSU at our work-in on December 3rd, 10:00-2:00 in the Smith Center, to show the administration that we deserve fair contracts now. Faculty and postdocs, bring your work, your grading, and your expertise to share!

Fellow Harvard alumni: our alma mater is under attack. The government is threatening its independence, cutting research funding, and undermining free inquiry. We've added our names to an amicus brief defending Harvard’s values and freedoms. Join us here: bit.ly/HarvardAmicusBrief Please share!

Heartbreaking essay from our colleague & fellow @haw-uaw.bsky.social union member, unjustly imprisoned since February: “I hope that the judge rules Wednesday that I can be released, so I can return to my lab. There is a data set that I’m halfway finished analyzing. I want to go home and finish it.”

rally with us tomorrow in support of the safety and job security of the WORKERS who make Harvard a leader in research and education! protect our workers! protect our noncitizens!

Our statement in response to the Trump administration's attack on Harvard, together with @hgsuuaw.bsky.social, the Harvard Undergraduate Workers Union, the AAUP-Harvard Faculty Chapter, and @huctw-rankandfile.bsky.social.
