Classes are set to resume Monday after Rutgers University and its faculty reached an agreement to end a weeklong strike
“This fair and amicable conclusion respects the interests of many different stakeholders, upholds New Jersey’s values, and puts an end to a standoff that was disruptive to our educators and students alike,” Murphy said. The strike on three campuses began Monday after nearly a year of gridlocked contract negotiations. It involved about 9,000 faculty and staff, and was the first strike in the state university’s history of almost 257 years.
“The framework that was reached today between Rutgers and its faculty unions provides fair and equitable wages, benefits, and work conditions for our faculty as well as our graduate students and part-time lecturers,” Rutgers President Jonathan Holloway said.
