125 days later, with a cumulative 648 days out of school, the strike has been called off today.
We waited out a 275-day strike in 2020 to resume. We suffered a 234-day strike in 2022 before preclinicals. It’s the 94th day of yet another strike. That’s 603 days—an unbearable 1 year and 8 months—spent out of school with no end in sight. Here’s why: uimsapress.org/academic-crise…
