Originally Published 2 years ago — by The New York Times

Thousands of professors and academic staff members at California State University began a five-day strike, the largest in U.S. university faculty history, to demand higher compensation, affecting nearly 460,000 students. This reflects a national trend of large-scale strikes and education walkouts, following similar actions by Los Angeles school employees, Oakland educators, and University of California graduate student workers.
