https://www.sfuc19coalition.com/The SFU COVID-19 Coalition includes organizers from Simon Fraser Student Society (SFSS), Graduate Student Society (GSS), Teaching Support Staff Union (TSSU) and Tuition Freeze Now (TFN). The coalition was set-up last summer to ensure that student and worker interests do not suffer as a result of COVID-19. It has received official endorsements from all of the above mentioned organizations.
SFU has recently announced increases in tuition and student fee revenue of 2% for new and existing domestic students and a 4% increase for existing international students. We are deeply concerned that SFU has chosen to do this at a time of increased precarity. We face uniquely challenging and uncertain circumstances that deserve relief, not greater burdens, from our institutions. Further, many international students, studying from abroad, are facing particular economic hardships due to the devaluation of their country's currency, as a result of COVID-19.
We are currently recruiting volunteers to help challenge SFU on this. Let us know, by signing-up here, in what capacity you'd like to get in involved with C19C. Let's use our collective power and fight for a better university for all!
