Lou Colasanti: CCV by the numbers

Editor’s note: This commentary is by Lou Colasanti, of Bristol, who is a member of the CCV faculty and its union.
At the end of January, the newly formed union of Community College of Vermont faculty entered into negotiations with the Vermont State Colleges to bargain for a first contract. The hope and expectation was that, while there would likely be points of disagreement, the process and the outcomes would reflect an effort by all parties to negotiate in good faith and fair dealing.
