AUFA supports fair wages for grad students

Last week, AUFA, AUPE, and CUPE signed a letter to AU supporting fair wages for graduate students.

Presently, the hourly rate of Research Assistants at AU is $18.50 (master’s) and $20.50 (doctoral). The provincial average is $35.63.

RAs at AU have not received a pay increase since 2013. After four years of bargaining with the Athabasca University Graduate Students’ Association, AU continues to demand a wage freeze until at least 2027.
