  • Meeting with the attorney
  • Wednesday, June 5 to discuss whether or not to go to arbitration.
  • PERC update (not considering service to the College for last year’s faculty bargaining team).
  • Julian the attorney says we have to file a grievance first before going to arbitration.

  • The way to solve past practices requires a grievance process.
  • If they give us a timeline, we can say PERC told us to file a grievance.
