From the SEIU 615 flyer:
Saintely Paul has been working in the William James Hall for Facilities Maintenance Operations (FMO) for the past 6&1/2 years. He was fired at the end of June after he fainted at work. Havard refuses to rehire him despite medical documentation of his treatment . Upon firing, Saintely’s health insurance was taken away.
Rally with janitors, politicians, students, and faculty!
Friday, September 22, 5PM
In front of the Holyoke Center (Au Bon Pain)
Harvard Square, Cambridge

*handing the President’s email address to spam-bots is counterproductive.
