UC student-workers strike for better pay, benefits enters second week: 'Our needs are not being met'
"The UC I think is hopeful that this comes to an ends soon," said Hannah Freund, a fourth-year Ph.D. student at UC Riverside. "But we'll stay here as long as it takes to get what we need to live comfortably and not be rent burdened."
According to UC Riverside, academic student employees start out with a base salary of nearly $25,000 per year. Freund said teaching assistants are demanding their pay be more than doubled to $54,000 per year. But in a statement posted to the UC Riverside website, university officials point out that the nearly $25,000 base salary is not for full-time work.
