I took these pictures of the snow on the UIC campus yesterday. Everything looks so quiet and peaceful that it's hard to believe that in the coming week we will be walking the picket line. UIC United Faculty (UICUF) will be staging a two-day walk out, with the possibility of a longer strike on the horizon. For a clear and comprehensive account of why we are striking, please read this article by two preeminent professors in the English Department.
