Tentative Agreement Signed for New Contract: Ratification Vote Scheduled
Compromise Agreement in Tough Times Includes
2% Raises Per Year
By Charles J. Parrish,
Professor of Political Science and President
Negotiators for the AAUP-AFT and the Administration signed a Tentative Agreement earlier this month that renews most of the terms of our previous collective bargaining agreement. The 2006-2009 contract covering faculty and academic staff was set to expire on July 31.
The new three-year contract provides for modest salary increases and minor healthcare cuts in the midst of the worst economic downturn in the last 30 years.
