Grad Students Struggle To Make Ends Meet

Grad Students Struggle To Make Ends Meet

"If I had more money, I could save up and some day start a family. I wouldn't have to feel bad about going to the theater once in a while," seventh-year anthropology doctoral student Joe Feinberg told the MAROON in an e-mail. "I might be able to work fewer hours so that I could devote time to my research and other writing and organizing. But also I wouldn't feel like a second- or third-class person in the University."

Feinberg is one of many graduate students campaigning for the University to recognize Graduate Student United (GSU) as a union. Graduate students must pay Advanced Residency (AR) tuition after their fourth year at the school.
