<div style="font-size:16px">As some of you will
recall, the List took shape out of organizing
during the 2015 CUPE strike on the U of T campus.
It is almost three years later and CUPE locals are
back at the bargaining tables. This week's salon
thus takes on some added importance, and we hope
to see many of you there. This is also a chance to
toast the end of the term with friends,
discussion, and great music! </div>

explore the politics of
bargaining in higher education
through a panel discussion
among active members of
faculty, librarian,
instructor, student, and
teaching assistants' unions
and associations from local
universities and colleges.
Speakers will explore the
common and distinct
experiences of bargaining for
unions representing teaching
labour across institutions,
and ask a series of questions
about how we can build
stronger solidarities in this
moment. How can we build
solidarity across divided
campuses and across
institutions in the region?
How can we build stronger
solidarity with and among
undergraduates? And how can
campus labour movements build
cultures and solidarities that
centre racial and gender
justice in their work? </span></p>
