About this event

(Zoom Event)

Under Project 2025,  higher education would be remodeled with the destruction of public universities with privatization and the elimination of all unions at universities.
This panel will discuss how this is taking place and how working people and unions can challenge these attacks including the organizing drives.
It  will also look at the political purges that are being implemented and the attacks on critics of Israel eliminating tenure rights. It also is aimed at using AI to eliminate faculty and staff.
