Ucu Strikes Are Happening Again

RHETORIC THAT WE have heard for three years running now (maybe even longer, who knows at this point), UCU strike action has hit campus once again.

This time there is a historic 18 day-strike over a period of seven weeks, with staff members protesting at Heslington Hall and across the city of York, asking for fairer pay and better working conditions.

But how is this affecting us students? Yet again, we are having our learning majorly disrupted, and with the sheer amount of strike days during this term, many students may have up to four weeks back-to-back of no teaching.

Especially anxiety-inducing for students about to graduate, this latest striking period may result in a marking boycott later down the line, causing more stress.
