The September 5, 2023 Tentative Agreement was ratified by the AAUP-Utica Membership on Wednesday, September 27, and by the Utica University Board of Trustees on Thursday, September 28! 🎉

AAUP-Utica bargaining unit members are again working with a contract, effective immediately!

85% of the AAUP-Utica membership (85% of voting members) voted on the contract ratification, and 99% voted YES to ratifying the tentative agreement. 

This is a huge win, and it is the result of a lot of hard work by the AAUP-Utica negotiation team, the entire AAUP-Utica leadership, and everyone who participated in the AAUP-Utica’s collective actions and mobilization efforts last year in the fight for a fair contract. All of those actions helped give the AAUP-Utica strength at the bargaining table.
