Why UIC Professors Are Striking

In Their Own Words

“After 18 months of bargaining, the faculty at University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) is headed for a two-day strike on Tuesday and Wednesday,” the Illinois Federation of Teachers says.
“UIC professors did not want it to come to this, but the trustees’ proposals continue to short-change both faculty and students.
“UIC’s administration continues to hike tuition to the point it has amassed hundreds of millions in profits each year and more than a billion dollars in reserves, yet refuses to pay professors what they’re worth.”
