Collective Bargaining for Graduate Assistants

Tell Us Your Thoughts in the Survey for a Chance at $25!

The Collective Bargaining Bill is just round the corner, and we - the Graduate Student Association (GSA), want to know your stance on the bill. This survey's purpose is to understand how graduate assistants (GAs) at UMBC are currently feeling about their financial situation, including things such as housing, routine expenses, and GA benefits in relation to the current bill that will allow USM GAs the right to unionize. If you are unaware of the Collective Bargaining Bill or need a refresher, please go through this resource pack, especially curated for your reference.
  • The bill that was proposed last year is linked here
  • A factsheet created by students at UMD can be found here.
  • UMBC GSA's statement from last year can be found here.
Please note that you have the freedom to skip any optional questions in this survey if you do not feel comfortable responding to it. This survey is strictly anonymous. This information will be used to help the GSA in its efforts to advocate for GAs and other graduate students at UMBC. 

Completing this survey will enter you into a raffle to receive one of three $25 UMBC bookstore gift cards.
