Daily Aztec: CFA plans to vote: CSU faculty members could strike or quit
California Faculty Association members have said that when it comes to strikes, they don’t want to, but they will. That motto is plastered on fliers across San Diego State.
These words are turning into a force behind faculty potentially quitting as the CFA board of directors on Tuesday night authorized scheduling a vote to strike across the 23 California State University campuses.
“The (CSU) administration has refused to offer faculty a living wage and falsely promoted their unfair alternative proposal at a much higher level than it is,” CFA President John Travis said during a conference call on Wednesday. “Now, the faculty are going to have the opportunity to let their voice be heard on whether or not they want to move forward with job actions.”
SDSU faculty members “will definitely be voting in the first week around March 5 through 8,” CFA communications director Alice Sunshine said during Wednesday’s conference call.
