Daily News | Temple graduate students’ strike ends, tentative agreement reached
Temple University has reached a tentative agreement with the union representing its 750 graduate student teaching and research assistants, ending an 18-day strike that began Jan. 31.
Graduate students will get their benefits and tuition remission restored and will be able to return to work, Kaiser said. The union also had been asking the university to pay for health insurance for students’ dependents. Temple had been paying the full costs for students, but nothing for their families.
The strike took on a divisive tone after the university decided to withdraw tuition remission for the striking graduate students, telling them they must pay their spring tuition bills in full by March 9 or face a $100 late fee and the inability to register for future classes. The school also stopped paying for their health insurance, which at first caused a panic among students who found themselves temporarily cut off.
