Location: Union Office @ 603 E 13th Ave ( + Hybrid Zoom for some sessions)

What: Across the country, faculty unions like ours have held Strike Schools in order to prepare to take collective labor action—and that’s how they won! This session is based on the lessons learned from recent, victorious strikes and strike threats by the faculty union at Rutgers and by our own GEs in GTFF here at the UO.

Why: Strike School is designed to help us build the knowledge and confidence we need to win the contract we deserve. You will learn ways to help grow our solidarity leading up to a strike, the basic logistics of striking and picketing, strategies to maximize our impact, and other actions you can take NOW to turn our demands into victories. This training is open to all UA members, but if you have ever considered being on the front lines as a Picket Captain, this is your call to step up and learn what it takes to help lead!

We can win this fight by building our power together—join us at Strike School!
