The Coalition of Graduate Employee Unions’ blog points out this article reporting that seeking to defuse a movement for graduate student unionization, the University of Utah has announced improved health insurance:

This fall, many graduate students can get health insurance from the U for the first time, thereby saving money and avoiding graduate unions, said David Chapman, dean of the Graduate School.

A policy provided by Student Health Services costs students $1,000 and has a maximum benefit of $50,000.
