<\/figure>\n

<\/p>\n

Recent events across the country show that sexual harassment pervades the academic workplace as deeply as it does Hollywood or any other profession. \u00a0Please take a moment to sign this petition calling on the Columbia administration to address sexual misconduct and gender-based discrimination immediately.<\/a><\/p>\n

Among the many reasons hundreds of postdocs and researchers have signed up for our union, we know that we can negotiate stronger protections and systems of recourse against sexual harassment. \u00a0At the University of Connecticut, for example, graduate assistants negotiated protections in their first contract, including\u00a0a grievance process that has already enabled some women scientists to successfully address sexual harassment<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Best wishes,<\/div>\n

Members of the Columbia Postdoctoral Workers (CPW-UAW)<\/p>\n
