NYC Indy Media: A lesson in class
The lines are becoming clear in a battle that many see as critical to organized labor’s future on college campuses. On the one side is a powerful university with a billion-dollar endowment, backed by anti-union faculty and reportedly aided by high priced union-busting lawyers.
