The University of California announced Friday both the UC system and its striking academic workers will enter private mediation.

This comes after the UAW union workers have gone on strike at 10 California campuses for nearly a month. Both sides hope the move to engage in a private mediator will overcome recent negotiation gridlock.

"It's been a little more difficult because of the lack of tutoring options and office hour options," said Saigal. "Two of my finals were in-person, and now they're online. They've shifted to open note. But because of that, they're more difficult," said Saigal. UC Berkeley spokeswoman Janet Gilmore said on Friday she believed the university has enough proctors to monitor finals.

Correction: the union agreed to mediation, but has not agreed to private, closed meetings. That is misleading, bad faith PR by UC in an attempt to silence rank and file workers.
