Pa. Faculty Union Not Happy About Contract

Leaders of the faculty union for Pennsylvania’s state universities — the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculties — have changed their minds about a tentative agreement that narrowly averted a faculty strike last month, according to an item on The Chronicle’s News Blog. They’re threatening to spurn the contract because some agreed-upon provisions are missing from the final drafts. Union leaders won’t make their recommendation to members, however, until the contract language is finalized in the next two weeks.
