...but when I was in grad school the "TA's" who taught 90% of the classes, did all the grading, office hours, etc...got diddly squat...

One of the reasons I left the program was that they offered me a TA position my second year, for no pay, on top of preparing for my own degree, and wouldn't even comp my tuition. Seriously. They wanted me to work more than full time for them, while studying on my own and taking my own grad courses, and not even comp my tuition.

Some places are nuts. I fully support this strike.
