UPDATE College Student Walkout Planned For Friday
By Rob Shervill
Students at St. Clair College in Windsor plan to join those at 13 others across the province to stage a walkout at noon on Friday.
The students plan to issue a list of demands in the wake of the five week-long strike by college faculty.
Demands include that any profits from the strike be returned to students, a payment of $500 for ALL college students no strings attached, disband the Employee College Council and replace it with a body that's made up of 1/3 each of students, faculty and administration, and withdrawal with full refund for full-time and international students-no strings attached.
The list of demands will be read at each college at 12:45pm.
But Nick Goran, the Student Rep Council President at St. Clair College, is not endorsing the rally.
The strike by faculty ended last month after the province issued back-to-work legislation.
More than 1,200 students at St. Clair College dropped out.
