Inside Higher Education reported today:
Bishop’s University, in Quebec, on Thursday locked all unionized
employees off the campus, and suspended summer courses and programs.
University officials told The Montreal Gazette that they believed the
step would move contract negotiations forward. The talks have been
stalled by disputes on pensions, among other issues. Union officials
said that the lockout was not necessary and was hurting students.
Any inside information about this issue, eh?
