Rutgers University strike enters day 2 today as contract negotiations continue. ZinniaDee_TV has the latest from the school president and those picketing.
Now, the school president is urging picketers to be respectful after reports that multiple classes were disrupted by protesters Monday, including one that was taking an exam.
"I'm angered by the treatment of my professors, you know. I just want change to happen," Rutgers-Newark undergraduate student Isaiah Alcide-Barroso told CBS2. Union leaders say adjunct faculty and graduate students make poverty wages, but the university chooses to allocate millions of dollars elsewhere.
"I think the very force and nature of our administration in the room, basically, with a 'lock the door, throw away the key' mentality, there's a very significant potential to move the needle," he said.
