New Jersey: Strike averted at Rider

Inside Higher Ed: The faculty chapter of the American Association of University Professors and Rider University have reached a tentative contract agreement, averting a strike that had been viewed as a possibility. Among the contract provisions: 4 percent raises, followed by raises that match the national average as reported by the AAUP; no “significant increase” in the number of full-time, non-tenure track faculty positions; an assurance that 65 percent of sections will be taught by full-time faculty members.
