The bill would double or even triple many students’ taxes, making graduate school an unaffordable proposition except for those already independently wealthy. There will be a nationwide rally/walkout on Wednesday, Nov 29 at 1pm EST/ 10am PST to support higher education and show how vital graduate students are to society. Graduate students are the bedrock of innovation and research in this country. We are vital for the structure and function of higher education in the United States. Without us, universities wouldn't have enough instructors for their college courses. Join the nation in protesting the grad student tax! When: Wednesday, Nov 29 at 1pm EST Where: University of Rhode Island Quad Spread the word! Yours in solidarity, Graduate Assistants United University of Rhode Island 307 Roosevelt Hall Kingston, RI 02881 w: www.urigau.org p: 401.874.2826 Tax Walkout Details: Website: https://gradtaxwalkout.wixsite.com/walkout Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/300955367071512/ Twitter: @GradTaxWalkout, @SaveGradEd https://actionnetwork.org/events/grad-tax-walkout-uri
