Rutgers Faculty Strike Ends with Union Agreement

Rutgers University and three faculty unions have reached a tentative deal to end the first faculty strike in the university's history. The deal would provide better pay, benefits, and job security for full- and part-time faculty. All classes at Rutgers’ three campuses will resume on Monday, though union leaders stressed there is still work to be done to finalize the contracts and formally end the strike. The unions emphasized the strike has simply been suspended and not canceled yet.
