CSU faculty strike

California State University professors have voted overwhelmingly to strike later this spring. The administration says it has offered a raise of nearly 25 percent over the next three years. Union reps say only about 15 percent of that would be guaranteed. The union has done a good job spotlighting problems within the CSU administration. And there are issues here besides wages. Still, it's difficult to believe that the professors are going to generate much public sympathy with a salary increase of 15 percent to 25 percent on the table.
