DePaul Students Take Another Step Toward Living Wages
Over the past couple of months, students at DePaul University have been knocking on dorm-room doors, speaking to classes and meeting with friends to gain support for living wages and affordable healthcare for contracted campus workers. Through their hard work, they collected over 1500 petition signatures. Earlier this week, a delegation of 16 of the student leaders delivered the petitions straight into the University President’s hands!
The next major step for the campaign is a community event on Friday, April 23, which will celebrate the achievements the workers and students have made so far and send a clear message that the DePaul community will stand together to ensure justice for its workers. If you are in Chicago, please join us! The event is at 3:30 PM at the corner of Kenmore and Belden in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood. Check out the Facebook event and share the flyer.
