As you know, the College of Arts and Sciences within the University at Buffalo set a $20,000 stipend baseline for full-time funded PhD graduate workers. In June of this year, more campaigning by GSEU and LSM led to broad-based fees being covered by UB university-wide for full-time funded PhD graduate workers. However, there are still far too many exceptions to the rule &#8211; too many graduate workers at UB still make less than $20k and still pay fees. Not to mention, those of us who do receive $20k are still well short of a living wage in Erie County.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Therefore, we are currently circulating a petition to set a university-wide $22,000 minimum stipend and waive broad-based fees for ALL graduate workers at UB, without exception.\u00a0<\/strong>While this is still short of a living wage, we want to eliminate inequities in our pay as a first unified step.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you are a graduate worker, student, faculty, staff, alum, or community supporter at UB\u00a0<em>or\u00a0<\/em>any other SUNY campus,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fforms%2Fd%2Fe%2F1FAIpQLSdgFKIoPlnHNZ-jOLqiQn-bR2JvpIQ4uHMM4qHD1ZgrJUhMBg%2Fviewform&amp;data=04%7C01%7Cslfrank%40buffalo.edu%7C170d9d0b435c4817f19b08d9a5411ed7%7C96464a8af8ed40b199e25f6b50a20250%7C0%7C0%7C637722521377129258%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=OTypqYWs4I7um%2F5ELqbC6jZwbXzzoKy5F6Vl9tEpzAE%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">we urge you to sign this petition and share it as widely as you can before next Thursday (Nov. 18th).<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you,<\/p>\n<p>UB GSEU leadership<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<br \/>\nUB LIVING STIPEND MOVEMENT<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fublivingstipend.wordpress.com%2F&amp;data=04%7C01%7Cslfrank%40buffalo.edu%7C170d9d0b435c4817f19b08d9a5411ed7%7C96464a8af8ed40b199e25f6b50a20250%7C0%7C0%7C637722521377129258%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=ifgxlUU9pmjWggHwKofNW7BQgcFLrdzLZz1cbeQORAE%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/ublivingstipend.wordpress.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello!
