Records of Memorial Union Labor Organization (MULO), an independent labor union which represented part-time student workers and limited term employees (LTEs) at the student unions on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus from 1971-2004. MULO went on strike three times, in 1972, 1976, and 1980. Membership numbers went down shortly after the 1976 strike and did not go up until the spring of 1980. Throughout MULO's history, the organization was very active in the bargaining process, filing grievances, supporting other unions and organizations such as United Farm Workers, and trying to improve working conditions for student and limited term employees. The materials in this collection date from 1971-2004, with the bulk of the records documenting the 1980s and 1990s. Included in the collection are minutes of several committees and the Stewards' Council; correspondence and other administrative records; membership records; graphics, flyers, and posters used for promotional purposes; Collective Bargaining Agreements, 1988-2004; grievances filed by student and limited term employees; files on other labor unions and organizations; and an alphabetical subject file. MULO also published a newsletter which can be found on microfilm in the Wisconsin Historical Society Library.
