Besides faculty, Monday’s action is expected to include Teamsters, students, staff, community leaders and local elected officials.
The faculty union at Cal Poly Pomona staged a one-day strike today, the first of several such actions this week at California State University schools statewide as the union negotiates a new labor contract.
Pickets began at 7 a.m. and are expected to run through 7 p.m. Monday at the Cal Poly campus, with a noon rally, the California Faculty Association said in a statement last week.
The union said that one-day strikes were also planned for Tuesday at San Francisco State, Wednesday at CSU Los Angeles and Thursday at Sacramento State “unless California State University management presents serious, fair and reasonable proposals to address long-standing inequities.”
Members of Teamsters Local 2010, which is also in the midst of contract talks with CSU management, is planning sympathy strikes in support of the faculty union, the CFA said.
