Union officials complain that Starbucks has refused to negotiate for more than six months and has not put forward any contract proposals in over a year. Starbucks says it's intent on reaching a contract. Stephanie Luce, a labor studies professor at City University of New York, said that to pressure Starbucks to reach a contract, "we need a major disruption of corporate power". There are growing calls for a Starbucks boycott ; students at Georgetown and UCLA are urging their universities to kick out Starbucks.
