The Chronicle News Blog: Staff Members Vote to Form Union at Marymount Manhattan College

Nonfaculty staff members at Marymount Manhattan College have voted to unionize and have picked the New York State United Teachers, an American Federation of Teachers affiliate, as their collective-bargaining agent, according to a news release issued today by the union. The vote, 65 to 27, was taken in March but only counted in May and certified by the National Labor Relations Board on June 9. The union already represents adjunct professors at the college. —Andrew Mytelka
