Harvard Graduate Students Union-United Automobile Workers underwent a series of restructuring processes after winning their first contract earlier this summer, officially establishing themselves as HGSU-UAW Local 5118.
Part of the process of operating an organized local with a contract involves creating a formal structure for the union, including electing an executive board and chartering new bylaws. The graduate union currently stands at this step, according to newly minted HGSU-UAW president Brandon J. Mancilla.
