General Membership Votes to Extend Contract Decision Date

At the 10 September meeting, the general membership passed a motion requesting that the original date of 1 October 2007 be moved to a later date. The officers are working on the wording and precise date and will extend this to the board at their 20 September meeting in hopes of agreeing to a memorandum of understanding.

Although this move will provide a very short negotiations window (if we come to that), it will also allow faculty to know the healthcare/insurance parameters as we vote to extend (or not) the current contract into the next academic year.
