BALLOT – VOTE HERE

Additionally, please remind your fellow Academic Student Employees (ASEs) to vote, whether they are your friends, classmates, labmates, or in a different cohort. Let’s ensure that we send a clear and strong message to WSU Administration that ASEs at WSU are united in demanding that WSU:

  • Pay ASEs a living wage
  • Protect ASEs from harassment and discrimination.
  • Fairly negotiate decisions about our employment, including healthcare, at the bargaining table.

For more information, you can read our announcement email, our Strike FAQ, and the International ASE Strike FAQ. You can also check out the testimonies below from your fellow ASEs about why they are voting YES in the SAV:

If you have remaining questions about the SAV, please reach out via contact@wsucase.org.
