A tentative agreement has been reached between Rutgers University and labor unions, ending the school's historic strike. jennbisramtv reports.
"This is utterly transformative, and it will mean the difference between being able to pay your rent and not, or having a sense of job security," said Donna Murch, associate professor and New Brunswick Chapter president representing the academic staff."We are extremely pleased that we reached what we believe is the basis for a transformative contract for part-time faculty at Rutgers," Amy Higher, president of Rutgers' adjunct faculty union, said in a statement.
"We still have work to do to come to a full tentative agreement, and we will resume doing so next week," she added."Most of all, we are eager to get back to teaching our students and helping them finish up spring semester."We have reached a tentative framework for a contract & the strike is *suspended while a TA is finalized. The wins that will come in this contract are owed to the amazing & powerful work of member organizers on the ground.
Rutgers and faculty labor union officials were meeting in the New Jersey State House this week to negotiate after the governor stepped in.
