MT. PLEASANT -- The “fact-finder” hired to investigate the dispute between Central Michigan University and its faculty has released his findings.

On the first day of the Fall Semester, August 22nd, the faculty went on strike.  A judge ordered the disgruntled employees to return to work and Barry Goldman was given the task of digging deeper into the disagreements to find a resolution.

Goldman’s eight page report released this week details out the disagreements and possible resolutions regarding bargaining, tenure, promotion policies, salaries, health benefits, retirement, and more.

Now that these non-binding findings have been released, talks will likely resume between faculty and the university.
