The American Association of
University Professors of PSU repre­
sents more than 1,200 faculty and
academ ic professionals at the
school.
The association declared an im­
passe with the administration last
week which allows for a potential

strike in the spring term if no agree­
ment is reached.
Mediation between the two sides
will continue this week. Key bar­
gaining issues are retaining educa­
tor-led higher education, reversing
the erosion of faculty stability and
equitable pay.
