Intense afternoon. We met at Le Métropolis at 12:30 and got out around 5pm. After 8 weeks of strike, the so-called “mouvement” was gasping for breath, but not wanting to lose face, the faculty leaders proposed to lower our demands on the university, so low, so that they would be met in a day or so, which would end the strike and make us feel as if we were great victors. Some people disagreed and wanted to continue the strike with still strong demands, others were fine with the low ones and still others just wanted to be done with the strike. With a lot of ups and downs, threats and fears, the majority (finally) voted to END THE STRIKE! Classes are starting tomorrow morning!

  3. Do, it wasn’t my fault that I didn’t have the interview, Morissette called me telling me she wasn’t available anymore on Monday morning, so we switched to Wednesday morning.
