"Cal State University Faculty Strike Ends with Tentative Contract Agreement"
TL;DR
The California State University system and the union representing thousands of professors and lecturers reached a tentative deal to raise wages, ending the largest strike by university faculty members in U.S. history. The deal includes an immediate 5% salary increase retroactive to July 1, 2023, with another 5% raise scheduled for July 1, 2024, as well as a $3,000 increase to the salary floor for the lowest-paid faculty members and an extension of parental leave to 10 weeks. The strike reflects a broader trend of labor actions across industries grappling with wages that have not kept pace with high inflation.
