#AAUP-CSU and CSU students pressed the CSU administration to withdraw changes to the university's free speech and assembly policy. zurl.co/CQhxk CSU listened. But Trump’s "loyalty compact" is still a threat! On November 7, show your support for faculty and students who champion free speech!

Why are Starbucks Union employees picketing? Right now the CEO is paid 6,666 times as much as the typical barista. Consider this, if a barista gets one cup of coffee, then the CEO gets 6,666 cups. Even university students and professors understand that no one needs that much coffee!
