Rutgers University and Faculty Unions End Historic Strike with Agreement

Rutgers University has reached a deal with faculty unions to end the historic week-long strike, demanding salary increases, better job security for adjunct faculty members, and guaranteed funding for graduate students. The new deal will increase salaries for full-time faculty and New Jersey Educational Opportunity Fund counselors by at least 14% by the summer of 2025. The amendments are still pending ratification by members of each faculty union.
