Attention graduate student TA's, graders, markers, lab instructors, etc.
etc. (anyone who is a member of the Canadian Union of Public
Employees). Please see message below from Jason Kelly, the union local
president.
It is important to send him the information he is requesting in order
that the union properly represent the needs of the TA's (et al.) to the
university administration (who sets your pay and hours).
So email him (don't email me). His address is below.
Thanks,
Simon.

Subject: TA/Grader Marker hours
Date: Wed, 07 Nov 2007 15:41:53 -0600
From: Jason Kelly <jdkelly79(a)gmail.com>
To: undisclosed-recipients:;
Hey everyone
I am hoping that you can circulate this email to graduate students in
your departments. CUPE is trying to put together a case for the
University that we are currently not being paid enough hours to do the
work that we do. It is common knowledge throughout the grad student
community that we often spend much more time meeting with students,
answering emails, marking papers/labs/tests, demonstrating labs, holding
office hours, preparing for labs or teaching responsibilities, etc. As
such, I would like graduate students to send me an email outlining how
many hours they get paid relative to how many hours they actually put
into being a TA/Grader Marker, etc.
Please send your emails to jdkelly79(a)gmail.com and feel free to contact
me at any point.
Jason Kelly
FYI - note that speakers are still wanted.
Simon.
