What a disruption.
Its obvious they care more about their own monetary compensation than the students.
Too bad those striking teachers can't be fired. I know if I walked off the job I would not have a job to come back to.BSBA CIS from TESC, BA Natural Science/Math from TESC

Believe it or not, it's all of the union faculty besides 1 who came and taught today, but I don't have her as a professor.

It is really hard to understand how striking can exist in this day and age with such a high level of unemployment.
