CSU, faculty union in contract accord

The California State University and its faculty union, the California Faculty Association, have reached tentative agreement on a new two­year contract.

The pact, which still must be ratified by the CSU board of trustees, has been ratified by the CFA.

The new accord, which runs from July 1, 1991, to June 30, 1993, reflects the budget squeeze facing the CSU. No salary increases will be given unless funds are appro­priated by the Legislature. Some of the contract terms are:

*Two-year appointments for most temporary faculty who have served in temporary assignments for six years dating to 1983.

*To recruit and retain underrep­resented faculty, a program will be developed to provide $2 million yearly in supplemental pay for such faculty members for a max­imum six-year period. *Two new free insurance benefits

will be provided. *Beginning in 1991, all eligible

faculty entitled to sabbatical leaves will be allowed to take them with­out restriction as to available replacement funding.

*A two-year suspension of the Meritorious Performance and Pro­fessional Promise (MPPP) awards. These are $2,500 awards given to faculty for superior teaching or promising behavior. This will save $4.675 million per year.

*A non-discrimination clause that is subject to the grievance procedure.

*An agreement to negotiate $5 million in reductions in compensa­tion obligations in 1991/92 to help meet the CSU' s budget reduction needs.
