Thousands of Auckland University students' classes are cancelled today and tomorrow morning, as tertiary education union members go on strike.
This afternoon, nearly 1200 union members will rally outside the Clock Tower on Princes Street demanding the university offer pay rises of at least 5%, and keep terms and conditions such as long service leave in collective agreements.
At the moment, the union says non-union members' pay is around 5% higher.
Organiser Nicole Wallace spoke with Māni Dunlop.
