Hi all\, I'm a member of The University of Minnesota's Graduate Labor Union and we're more or le ss on a crash course to striking (see UMN GLU for more details but tl\;dr we've been negotiating for over a year and the University has effectively halted bargaining with us).

\n

Update: Strike avoided for now\, but we as a union still expect nego tiations to eventually stall out again

\n

Update 2: We're voting for strike next week!

\n

Since we're a young u nion that just started getting dues from members in the last few months\, I'm hoping to combine my love for organizing events\, Netrunner\, and Star tup to have a casual level fundraiser for the union's eventual Strike Fund . Donations will go towards supporting striking graduate workers\, as well as for the infrastructure and material costs that will occur during our f ight for a fair contract.

\n

Here's how this works:

\n

There will be a google form with registration information including your address for prize support etc .

\n

We will do at least 5 rounds of Single Sided Swiss on Aesops or Cobra (with more and a top cut depending on player count) starting at noon CST\, or 18:00 UTC

\n

Since startup events are already rare\, I'm not going to require a donation or monetary cost to play. However\, I'm going to ask that if yo u want prize support\, to please donate at least $10 USD to the union (wit h the link in the google form when it goes live).
