UNSUSPEND NYU STUDENT-WORKERS

New York University Admin

On February 19th, 2025, the NYU administration enacted the latest in a series of harsh reprisals against students standing in solidarity with Palestine. Three additional student-workers from the department of Art and Public Policy have been suspended for their participation in a study-in that took place at Bobst Library on December 11th, resulting in the loss of their on-campus jobs and only means of supporting themselves. We call on the University to immediately reverse the suspensions of these three student-workers, who have been subjected to draconian punishment for upholding the values of “free discourse, debate, and dissent” that the University claims to champion.

UAW GSOC-2110 remains steadfast in its position of solidarity with Palestine and its unwavering opposition to racism, Islamophobia, antisemitism, and all forms of xenophobia. The union also remains committed to defending the fundamental rights of speech, expression, and assembly—even and especially when the University fails to do so.

We urge you to sign this petition and raise your voice in support of this urgent call for justice and an end to the blatant persecution of pro-Palestinian voices within the NYU community.

Amnesty for all suspended and disciplined students—NOW!

On February 19th, three more GSOC student-workers were suspended for participating in a study-in at Bobst library, resulting in the loss of their on-campus jobs and only means of supporting themselves.

I am writing to demand that NYU immediately reverse the suspensions of these three student-workers, as well as all others who have been subjected to punitive measures for engaging in “free speech and inquiry… debate, challenge, and protest”–principles that NYU claims to uphold.

It is clear that these students are facing excessively harsh punishment for their exercise of free expression. The University’s response to these students’ activism is not only disproportionate, but it is politically motivated, influenced by the Palestine exception and a broader, harmful agenda aimed at suppressing freedom of expression rather than upholding academic and institutional integrity.

In solidarity with the affected students and with those continuing to support the fundamental right to freedom of speech, expression, and assembly, we demand that NYU reconsider these unjust decisions and reinstate the suspended students and student-workers without delay.
