Non-Tenure-Track Workers Vote for Union at Ferris State U.

Non-tenure-track faculty members at Ferris State University, in Big Rapids, Mich., have overwhelmingly voted for union representation, the American Federation of Teachers says. The Ferris Nontenure-Track Faculty Organization is affiliated with AFT-Michigan, AFL-CIO, which has adjunct-faculty unions at several institutions in the state. Adjunct faculty members at Central Michigan University have come to an agreement with administrators about which non-tenure-track instructors will be eligible to vote for a union later this month.
