Contract Negotiation Updates

6/1/17

Since our last update, we have met with the Administration three times, twice to discuss Clinical Nursing faculty proposals and once to discuss Librarian proposals. Needless to say, no agreement on either proposal has yet been reached though we remain engaged on both issues.

With the end of the semester passing without a tentative agreement on the successor contract, the FSU team continues to bargain with the administration.  However, we have agreed that we will do limited bargaining during the summer over only a few items currently on the table: NTT, CAPS, Librarians, and Clinical Nursing faculty. In addition, we have yet to hear from the Administration regarding their proposals for salary increases. We anticipate that bargaining over all other matters will continue into fall 17 and will keep you apprised of any progress during the summer months.

See here for current and previous bargaining updates.
