DESCRIPTION:A new coalition of rank-and-file workers (including service workers, 
 librarians, GSIs, technical workers, and clerical workers) and students is 
 calling a meeting this Wednesday August 5th to discuss and organize against 
 the proposed cuts to classes, possible lay offs, tuition hikes, furloughs, 
 etc. \nWednesday's meeting will provide a critical space to orchestrate the 
 united resistance of workers and students. \n\nWe would also like to extend 
 an invitation to other sectors of workers who are also facing cuts to 
 attend, inform us about their struggles, and help coordinate unity of 
 struggle of workers across the Bay. We are especially interested in ongoing 
 struggles in other sectors of public education: teachers, workers, and 
 students from K-12, community colleges, and CSUs. Community members are 
 also enthusiastically encouraged to attend.\n\nWe recognize that neither 
 cuts nor tuition hikes have ever saved jobs or quality of education. In 
 fact, the recent history of tuition hikes clearly shows us that each time 
 we accept a new fee increase it paves the way for more in the future. The 
 Regents have consistently raised student tuition year after year in the 
 absence of united student opposition. It will be no different with the 
 attacks on workers.\n\nWe are publishing a newsletter written by workers 
 and students that documents our fight, presents our demands, and will serve 
 to organize and strengthen our struggle. It is attached. Please forward, 
 print and distribute it widely. \n\nOne Struggle! One Fight! Students and 
 Workers Unite! \n\n\nStudent Worker Action Team (SWAT) \n
