Hello to everyone who has signed our petition calling on Kent State University to provide student workers a living wage. We are eternally grateful for your support, and we are proud to announce that we have reached 500 signatures! We couldn’t have turned up the momentum without you. Together, we’ve shown Kent State that student workers demand better, and that our campus community stands by them in this fight. 

We have a hard fight ahead of us, but it is supporters like you who fuel our fight for a fair, dignified wage for students workers. We call upon you now to help us get to our next goal of 1,000 signatures and beyond. If every person who has signed this petition shares it with just one other person who hasn’t signed it yet, we could get past the 1,000 signature goal by the end of the week. You are the foundation of this movement and play a crucial role in its success—we couldn’t have made it this far otherwise.

We are especially grateful for the courage and voices of our student workers, who have played a key role in this petition’s success.  If you are a student worker and want to make your voice heard further you can fill out this confidential survey about your experience with working at Kent State.

We are so thankful to those of you who have filled out this survey already. And, if you want to join the fight and make an impact on Kent State’s campus, join us for our weekly meetings Thursdays at 7pm in Student Center room 314. Thank you again for using your voice to support the cause, we will keep you updated with updates on what we are doing. If you want to get weekly updates visit our substack and join the mailing list.
