Falling Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Lineup of cars was insane. Anyone know how the TTC situation is? Might have to just park at Finch station and bus it. If you take TTC, you'll get there quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronjw Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 TTC is holing on the perimeter (Keele, steeles, etc) as I understand. About a 20-25 min walk seems to be the norm? Jmills94 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falling Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Yeah it took me 10 minutes to get to Lassonde, and I walked through Founders because I was cold. Probably 15 minutes to Vari at worst. Sucks if you're in accolade east. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaronjw Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Ah f that. 25 min walk. Man. These picketers are starting to be a pain. I understand fair wages but what do they expect when they enter academia as a profession. Also York and u of t have the highest wages for any Ta. What more are these people expecting??? The TTC thing doesn't actually have anything to do with picketers (though, yes they do for driving). Its a union thing. TTC and other organizations will not picket lines.

totallyawesome Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Just saw the story on CP24. The person who sent it told the reporter that she "felt unsafe". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronjw Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Just saw the story on CP24. The person who sent it told the reporter that she "felt unsafe". Probably did. I'm glad I am not a picketer or willing to put myself in any type of such situations. I am a punch first and ask questions later type when faced with situations like this lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyre not really asking for wage increases. They're asking for their wages to be protected against increasing tuition costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falling Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Fair enough, but what does that entail? I.e. if tuition increases, then wage increases proportionally? Yeah. Apparently they had it in their CA, but York found a loophole in the language and raised international tuition by 7000 dollars for incoming grads this year. Apparently the wage increases they currently get don't even keep up with inflation (I can't confirm). Jmills94 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falling Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Exams start and finish 1 week later than usual. Drop date for courses is the 17th, exam start the next day and finish May 3rd. Basically, they took away the week we have off prior to exams and extended the term by 1 week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruhh Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 So my prof emailed us that she will not be coming to class to teach because she is not comfortable with crossing picket lines. With that said, she said that we have Midterm 2 next week. #logic I don't know what PhD she has but she sure is a master in hypocrisy.

aaronjw Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 She's a flake. Had cognition with her last year. ALL lecture material came directly from author of the textbook to which she did nothing to alter, add to, or enhance the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
