Please take a minute to vote YES in our Strike Authorization Vote.<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since opening our Strike Authorization Vote last week hundreds of postdocs and ARS from across the university have participated, and we\u2019re excited to continue talking with colleagues as we go into the final days of our historic vote. The vote will clo<\/strong>se TODAY Thursday, August 24 at 11:59pm (midnight). <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
