Detroit Free Press: Oakland University teachers may be absent for 1st day of class today
Boycott possible if contract talks stall

Students will file into the first day of classes at Oakland University this morning, but there may be no one to greet them.

Faculty members of the OU chapter of the American Association of University Professors voted Wednesday evening to authorize the union to call a job action, which could result in faculty boycotting classes.
