The Globe and Mail: Fredericton’s St. Thomas University to lock out its faculty
After 10 months of failed contract negotiations, St. Thomas University in Fredericton announced yesterday it was locking out its faculty – the first time a Canadian academic institution has pre-emptively locked out its academic staff before a strike.
The university pushed back the start of classes until Jan. 10 to reach a resolution, but the faculty recently rejected the administration’s latest offer. A strike vote was planned for next month.
