Professor John Logan Quoted in April 2026 News Coverage on Union Organizing and Higher Education

John Logan, Program Director and Professor of Labor and Employment Studies at San Francisco State University, was featured in multiple news outlets in April 2026, sharing his expertise on union organizing and labor relations across the United States. Logan was quoted in Law360 Employment Authority on the Teamsters' recent settlement with Amazon and its implications for union organizing.

He was also quoted in Cascade PBS on how the pandemic-era wave of unionization revealed that even companies with progressive reputations will resist workers' efforts to organize.

Professor Logan was also quoted in the Oregon Journalism Project on the challenges unions face in retaining members following the U.S. Supreme Court's Janus v. AFSCME decision, noting that unions must actively engage their members to survive.

Logan's research was cited in the podcast Time to Say Goodbye, in an episode featuring New York Times journalist Noam Scheiber discussing his book Mutiny: The Rise of Revolt of the College-Educated Working Class, which examines the surge of union organizing at companies such as Starbucks, Amazon, Hollywood studios, and digital newsrooms.
