The Nation : Accord Averts Yale Strike
A tentative agreement was reached on a new contract for Yale University’s 1,000 blue-collar workers, averting a strike that white-collar workers had vowed to join. The proposed three-year contract at the New Haven, Conn., school must be ratified Monday by the membership of Local 35 of the Federation of University Employees. Negotiators gave no details on the pact. Labor troubles have disrupted campus life since Sept. 26 when Local 34, representing white-collar workers, began a 10-week strike. Members of Local 34 ratified a new contract last week.
