Members of Arizona for Education will be convening at the Bookends Cafe this Tuesday, September 29, at 7:30pm. The objective of the meeting is to discuss strategies for amplifying the myriad voices of the university community during the university’s transformation process.
Items which are currently on the agenda (to be modified and appended later):
- Continue raising awareness of the Arizona for Education platform and increase membership/representative power
- Begin clearly delineating a “way forward” while establishing a short-term agenda for the organization
- Discuss ways that we can impact the proposed and currently wholly insufficient Grad Student Bill of Rights
- Think about ways to incorporate and give presence to constituencies outside the university which are nonetheless impacted by its current financial problematic.
We invite everyone to participate and help in developing solutions to the problems that we are all facing. At the very least, make yourself heard!

I am curious why you say the Grad Student Bill of Rights is insufficient. It has not even been written yet, nor even a committee formed to look at the feasibility of the proposition.
