This is from my college e-mail

On Friday, January 30, the College Compensation and Appointments Council
(CCAC) respresenting the community college system and the provincial
faculty bargaining team did not agree on a settlement and both sides
left the negotiating table.

Unless one side or the other re-opens talks in the near future, the
next important date is February 17 when a strike vote will be held.

A strike vote does not necessarily mean a strike will be held, but it
is a strong message to the bargaining team that one could be imminent.

The details of management's most recent offer and the union's proposal
are posted on the CCAC web site and on the OPSEU web site respectively.
The web addresses are:

http://thecouncil.on.ca/english/barg...acad-barg.html

http://www.opseu.org/caat/caat_ac/caatabargaining.htm

We will continue to provide you with more information as the situation
progresses.
If there is a strike..I don't know what will happen. I'm supposed to graduate in April and if there is a strike....well I'm screwed....This has me sorta worried.

there was supposed to be a TA strike at UVIC, but they solved that...also the bad part is that you don't get your tuition back

Our school will not refund our tution they said already. So that bites *** chunks. Best case scenario is I get my diploma early.

But yeah, they vote in a few days, time to do some finger crossing.....

God I love the education system....
