Contract Ratification Vote Results

7/11/2023

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the results of the contract ratification vote.

There were 289 votes cast. 288 votes in favor of ratification. 1 vote opposed.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the process – especially to the Contract Action Team whose enthusiasm and commitment helped secure expanded bargaining and raises higher than any time in recent memory, to those who attended the July 6th info session, and of course to everyone who voted. This is a resounding victory for faculty and librarians.

We Have a Tentative Agreement!
