Wright State to maintain normal hours despite pending strike - Dayton Business Journal

Wright State University will maintain its normal operating hours following a strike notice filed today by the union representing nearly 560 of the university’s more than 1,700 faculty members.The notification indicates the strike may begin on Tuesday, Jan. 22 at 8 a.m. “We are disappointed the union representing many of our faculty members decided to file a strike notification today,” said Wright State University President Cheryl Schrader. “While the union has a right to do this, the university has offered fair employment terms in light of our unprecedented financial crisis. With our new terms we still keep faculty salaries among the highest in the state. Faculty will also receive the same competitive healthcare coverage offered to all other Wright State employees.” https://www.bizjournals.com/dayton/news/2019/01/08/wright-state-to-maintain-normal-hours-despite.html
