The Ferris State University administration and Ferris Faculty Association were unable
to reach an agreement on a new contract as of Sunday, Aug. 26. Despite the fact that
University employees are forbidden by state law to strike, on Saturday, Aug. 25, FFA
members voted to authorize a strike. Based on this action, some faculty may not be
present to teach their classes on Monday. Classes will be held and students should
attend as scheduled. The University plans to continue negotiations with the FFA and
to serve the best interests of students as this process continues.
