Interior demolition work proceeded during the summer at 60 Oxford Street, formerly a Harvard computer facility, as it is completely renovated into the new home for the quantum science and engineering doctoral program, approved in 2021 (see harvard.mag.com/quantum/phd-21). The interdisciplinary effort involves research and teaching (graduate and undergraduate) in quantum physics, materials science, photonics, computer science, chemistry, and related fields.
The work stoppage will begin October 27, unless a final bargaining session next week yields an agreement.
The University warns this walkout may not be protected by labor law, an assertion the union disputes.
Faculty leaders say layoffs will yield $20 million in annual savings.
