The Detroit Free Press reported earlier this year that the golf course (valued at $6 million) and education center (valued at $27 million) have together lost $23 million over the past five years.

I was forced into joining the graduate student union, which is sponsored by the UAW. I wonder if I have privileges at this place, even though I’m a non-voting member?

I hear you HuskySig…I have been wondering the same thing since I was “Shanghaied” by the UAW because do occasional machining in one of their machine shops at UW-Seattle

“…the third time over the past five years that the union spending exceeded receipts, records show.”

Amazing. No wonder the Dems like the Unions so much, they both do not know basic fiduciary practices.

Learn something new every day.
