University of California (UC) postdoctoral scholars and researchers resumed work this week after ratifying a labor contract over the weekend, but 36,000 graduate student workers continue to strike.
Last month, 48,000 researchers and student employees across all 10 UC campuses launched a strike, demanding, in part, pay raises due to cost-of-living increases.
