Faculty, Administration Reach Tentative Agreement in Rider University Contract Negotiations

Rider University’s faculty union and the university's administration, which had been in negotiations since July, reached a tentative agreement on a new contract on Saturday (Oct. 22), according to a report published by the Rider News, which notes that both sides still must ratify the new contract. 

Members of Rider’s chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) last Thursday (Oct. 20) to “achieve a fair and equitable contract.”

The union represents all full-time and part-time professors, librarians, coaches, athletic trainers and reading clinicians on both Rider’s main campus in Lawrence Township and the Westminster Choir College campus in Princeton Borough.
