Leaders of the graduate assistants at New York University who are on strike said yesterday that they had no intention of ending their strike until NYU recognized them as a union, despite recent efforts by some professors and by other graduate students to bring the strike to a close. The chairman of the organizing group said the strikers were prepared to continue into next semester.
