The Role of Graduate Student Unions in Higher Education Class Struggles

In this episode, we are joined by graduate students John King and Ahmad Bilal from BGSU, and Zara Anwarzai and Anne Kavalerchik from Indiana University to discuss their interest in and research on graduate working conditions and class differences. Both Zara and Anne were part of a successful unionization campaign for graduate students at Indiana University and shared their experiences.

The conversation centers around class inequality in higher education and, specifically, the need for better working conditions for graduate students. Listen as the group discusses the impact of graduate student unionization and calls for class inclusivity in academia.
