For the second time in two years, members of Harvard’s graduate student union went to the polls Monday — both online and in-person — to decide whether to authorize their Bargaining Committee to call for a strike.
If two-thirds of voters vote yes, the Harvard Graduate Students Union-United Automobile Workers’ Bargaining Committee will be empowered to call for a strike at any time. The HGSU-UAW Elections Committee, which is overseeing the strike authorization vote, has yet to set a date to close polls; the vote opened Monday morning and will continue through at least Friday.
