This is some good news. I don’t have a deep or intelligent comment beyond, “nice.”

Very cool! I used to think that no one would care when researchers would protest these things by striking. But I guess anything that hurts the well oiled money making machine that is modern academia (not for researchers though, of course) gets noticed. Seeing it done for real is great, and even more so that it was successful!

Good for them! And they only had to strike for a week. UC grad students were on strike for way longer and barely got anything.
