Harvard University at odds with graduate students over union contract.

By Danielle Douglas-Gabriel Danielle Douglas-Gabriel Reporter covering the economics of education Email Bio Follow April 12 at 1:20 PM Harvard University is at odds with its graduate student union over the way the school handles sexual harassment claims, a fight that will soon make its way to the airwaves.

The 30-second ad paints Harvard as a “world-class” institution with a “world-class #MeToo problem,” where “powerful men have been protected, promoted and believed, while survivors are harassed, assaulted and ignored.” “Any system that allows Harvard to police itself is a non-starter,” said Madeleine F. Jennewein, a doctoral candidate in virology at Harvard and a union negotiator. “After decades of harassment, Harvard has shown time and time again that it’s not up to this task.”

“We find it difficult to accept the view that it is impossible to find unbiased members of the university community who could review an investigation on appeal — as our [graduate student union] colleagues seem to be asserting,” Swain said.
