now is not the time to back down. teaching is hard. teaching and doing research is even harder. this whole problem would be solved by everyone grad and undergrads walking out for a few weeks. Throw in a hunger strike in there too. Only a big disruption at this point will get things done. Now is not the time to back down. The School admins will not understand any other language unfortunately.

Teaching needs a large pay-bump. If you only hire the lowest common denominators you're going to get the lowest result. I've seen so many teachers move on to other jobs just because it doesn't have the pay needed for basic living.

Stop calling things like this socialism, futures depend on good education.
