For anyone interested, there's been a growing push for a unionization of graduate student employees. Even NYU has done more than Columbia.
Line: 6 to 6
 Edit 5/11: Here's the site for getting involved: http://www.columbiagradunion.org/call-to-action/

Edit 8/24: Yesterday the NLRB ruled that grad students do have a right to unionize here at Columbia (and other private universities).

 Malcolm, I also had no idea until this past week, but apparently this has been an issue for a long time, and little has been done. I'm asking around to see if there's a petition, or some other ways of getting involved. I'll update this page when I hear back.

Here's one graduate student's story. To me, the frightening part is not Columbia's policy or the cost to this one student, but that the existence of a union might have made it readily apparent that this would be an issue for the student.

 Wow, thanks for sharing this Mitchell; I was completely unaware. Is there some type of petition going around that you know of?
