Inside Higher Ed: Making Nice in Texas
What started as a nasty quarrel three years ago has blossomed into an apparently blissful relationship.

TSTC is Texas’s only state-supported system of technical colleges and has four accredited colleges. TFA formed in 1985 to protect faculty rights (the State of Texas does not allow public employees to unionize) and has 1,500 members.
