Graduate teaching assistants at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor staged a 12-hour strike Thursday in the hopes of disrupting the campus and pressuring administrators into concessions at the bargaining table.
Amid the usual disputes over numbers of protesters and canceled classes, leaders of the Graduate Employees Organization described the day as a ââ?¬Å?success,ââ?¬Â while a Michigan spokeswoman said the strike had resulted mostly in ââ?¬Å?inconveniences.ââ?¬Â
