The Tompkins County Workers' Center has given Ithaca College the terrible distinction of receiving this year's "Goat of Labor Award."
This award was given due to the college's outsourcing of non-union, non-local labor on its $64.5 million Athletics and Events Center. The business manager of Laborers Local Union 785 wished that, given the 10% unemployment rate, local labor had been used. I concur. Our obligation to our local community should be honored.
