Strike set to shutdown UC system Thursday


Central Valley Business Times:

"Thursday is supposed to be the first day of classes at most University of California campuses, but students may find their instructors walking picket lines instead.

More than 1,100 UC faculty, including some faculty members at the two Central Valley campuses in Davis and Merced, vow to strike for a day to protest tuition hikes, enrollment cuts, layoffs, furloughs, and increased class sizes."
