ANN ARBOR, Mich. โ Resident advisors at the University of Michigan have ended their nearly two-week strike after reaching a deal with the university.
Residential Staff members demanded more protections including regular access to testing for all residence staff, and enforcement of the university mask and social distancing mandates in dining and residence halls.
Weโd like to thank everyone that supported us during our strike, especially GEO, AFT, our regents, our LT, & everyone on campus that supported us.
GEO members had been on strike since Tuesday, Sept. 8 calling on university leadership to ensure better protections from COVID-19 on campus.
That strike ended on Thursday, Sept. 17 after a vote from GEO members the previous evening.
