Chief Negotiator’s Blog: 10.21.2021

As you will see from the Article 7 Administration proposal below, the administration, on behalf of the Board of Trustees, continues to seek “sole right, responsibility, or prerogative to make rules for government of the university, including ……… (the) determination of course offerings, including modality, time, and location of instruction.” Many institutions, accreditation agencies and the National AAUP in their Statement on Government of Colleges and Universities, discourage, and even prohibit, this level of intrusion by administrations and Boards.

We spent 3 hours negotiating the Proposal of 7, 8, 18, 21 and Appendix A and were unable to get to Package 10, 15, 16 and 28.
