Channel: rv media
Date: 2018-05-04

Video shot at The New School during the first 2 days of the student occupation of the university cafeteria, which began on May Day, 2018. 

Students workers are currently in union negotiations for a contract (SENS-UAW). At the same time, the university is not renewing its 3rd party food service contract, and approximately 45 current union workers (UNITE HERE Local 100) will be out of work. The occupation and the student strike negotiations are both ongoing as of this time. 

A campus-wide strike has been called for May 8th if no contract is reached with the administration.
