They were on the picket line again on Friday Dec. 8, 2023, in their six-week-long strike against the college. Full-time faculty want curriculum decisions to be made at the department level. Any kind of a central committee "is against the principle of faculty owning the curriculum,” Faculty Senate President Madhurima Chakraborty said.
