LONG BEACH, Calif.—The Long Beach-based California State University (CSU) announced Jan. 9 it will give all faculty, librarians, counselors, and coaches a salary increase of 5 percent, a move university officials said will conclude contract negotiations with the employees’ union.
According to the CSU, the decision to impose the 5 percent pay increases was made after the latest round of negotiations with the California Faculty Association (CFA) “failed to yield an agreement that would provide faculty salary increases while still allowing the CSU to best serve students within the limits of its resources.”
