CFA CSU Eastbay Faculty, Staff And Students Rally For Living Wage And Justice
CSU Eastbay CFA faculty, staff and students rallied and spoke out about the attack on their living conditions and the right to a public education. Staff have had years of pay cuts and the increasing privatization of the CSU system has meant that working class students are being prevented from getting a public education. The CSU chancellor Timothy White was confronted with angry students and faculty.
CFA CSU Eastbay Faculty, Staff And Students Rally For Living Wage And Justice
CFA CSU Eastbay faculty, staff and students picketed, rallied and spoke out on February 29, 2016 at a meeting with CSU Chancellor Timothy White who was speaking on the campus. White said his hands were tied and the 2% wage increase after years of cutbacks for faculty and staff was Governor Jerry Brown and the legislator's fault.
Teachers testified that they are unable to get healthcare and many cannot even pay back their student loans. The CFA is planning a 5 day strike of the entire 23 campuses and 25,000 members on April 15, 2016.

Labor Video Project,
I wanted to sincerely thank you for creating this video and documentation of the protest and meeting with CSU Chancellor White at CSUEB. The Dance Department has been in it's beginning stages of organizing and creating a foundation to build our capacity to better support both our department and faculty. This video will help immensely for those who couldn't make it Monday and be something we can reflect back upon as our organizing efforts continue. THANK YOU!
