For Immediate Release:
The Pace Transportation Union speaks out in support of the Pace students who dare to address the urgent and very legitimate concerns of the student body by standing up to the Administration. They should be allowed to be heard.We are in total opposition to the severe and unfair actions taken by the University in this case. Once again, Pace Administration is not playing by the rules.
To arrest students for exercising their first amendment rights of free speech when they feel they have no other recourse—is unconscionable. Worse, the course of action taken by the University evidently was pre planned.
Nothing less than the financial health and Pace’s quality of education are at stake here, and it should be in EVERYONE’S best interest to take part in discussions. Only when one side doesn’t wish to dialogue does it resort to these sorts of actions.
It is time for Pace Administration to join the conversation!
