Everything about The Coalition Of Graduate Employee Unions totally explained
The
Coalition of Graduate Employee Unions consists of
unions representing
graduate employees (also known as academic student employees or ASEs) at
universities in
Canada and the
United States. The coalition formed in
1992 and each year it organizes a yearly conference at which representatives from graduate employee unions come together to teach and learn from each other about organizing, negotiating contracts, tactics, and mobilization of members. At each conference the delegates spend part of one of the days on the
picket line in
solidarity with a group of striking workers in the city hosting the conference. In the period between conferences CGEU provides a forum for graduate employee unions to share information with each other, and maintains a website with information about graduate employee organizing.
The coalition is made up of locals from many different international unions, such as: the
American Federation of Teachers, the
United Auto Workers, the
Communication Workers of America,
UNITE HERE,
United Electrical Workers,
National Education Association,
American Association of University Professors, and the
Canadian Union of Public Employees, as well as some number of independent unions.
The 16th annual CGEU conference will take place in the summer of 2007 in
Amherst, Massachusetts and will be hosted by
GEO/UAW
.
The newest member of CGEU is
Graduate Assistants United -- Southern Illinois University, Carbondale which won recognition on September 13, 2006.
