"group of graduate students and postdoctoral scholars, who requested more support in terms of housing and child care services.
"While we do different jobs and face different conditions, we are linked by our dire need for affordable housing"
Cry me a river. Stanford graduates that need to be supported, are you kidding me?

These are graduate *students,* who are usually young adults working at entry-level salaries in one of the most expensive places in the country. Academic pay is based on grants and donor funding, and it ain't much. So yes, they do need affordable housing and childcare, the same as any other working family in this region.
