Three faculty unions and Rutgers University have ended their months at the bargaining table, agreeing on contract language that union leaders will vote on Sunday.
Unions at Rutgers University picket outside Winants Hall in New Brunswick, New Jersey on Thursday, April 20, 2023.Three faculty unions and Rutgers University have ended their months at the bargaining table, agreeing on contract language that union leaders are scheduled to vote on Sunday, Rebecca Givan, president of the largest Rutgers faculty union, said Friday.
On April 10, when the unions called the first faculty strike in Rutgers’ 277-year history, Gov. Phil Murphy called both sides to Trenton to negotiate with the help of two mediators and some of his top staff members. On April 15, he announced a tentative framework had been reached. Strikers returned to the classroom the following Monday.
The intervening two weeks of bargaining focused mainly on the medical faculty union, the American Association of University Professors–Biomedical and Health Sciences of New Jersey, representing 1,300 health science faculty. The preliminary framework included for part-time lecturers — also known as adjuncts — some job security and 44% raises over four years based on a current per-class salary of $5799a 27.
