GLU Union Card
Graduate Worker Unions are a democratic voice in higher education and work to improve the lives of all graduate workers they represent, especially the most vulnerable. Furthermore, graduate unions have acted together with other higher education unions to win cross-campus rights and protections in campus communities. For this reason, I support the GLU’s (SEIU) plan to win a recognized union and be in coalition to lift up all workers across the University of Rochester. I understand unions win by taking actions (including but not limited to signing petitions, sending letters, attending rallies, meetings, and press conferences, and striking) and support taking actions (to be determined) to win graduate labor rights at UofR. I authorize SEIU Local 200United to act as my exclusive representative in collective bargaining over wages, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment with my employer.

UR GLU Strike April-May 2025
Grads! Fill Out Your Strike Commitment Form
Grads! Fill Out Your Strike Commitment Form
This questionnaire is to confirm your commitment to the strike beginning on April 21st. In order to win a process for unionization and real change at UofR, the expectation is that all grad workers withhold labor (i.e., strike) and sign up for picketing shifts. We are so close to winning, it’s time to keep up the pressure! What is the difference between striking and picketing? Striking is a collective withholding of our labor- teaching, research, grading, etc.- to win a common goal. Picketing is the public, visible action of holding signs, gathering outside buildings, and making our absence known. Communications on picketing best practices will be forthcoming. Note: We value your safety and trust; your responses on this form will not be available to anyone outside of the GLU Organizing Committee.

Why the UR is lying about the NLRB : "Telling us to go to the NLRB is like telling us to use a broken elevator if we’ve injured our ankles. It simply isn’t an option"

The Graduate Labor Union, which seeks increased wages and representation for University of Rochester graduate students, says it has been frustrated with negotiations for a private election agreement.
