College Workers Extend Strike, Threaten Spring Term as NYU Faculty Walk Out

Oregon’s largest community college faces possible class delay as NYU faculty and manufacturing workers strike across Maine, Ohio, and Massachusetts

Portland Community College instructors and staff remained on strike Tuesday as the 13-day walkout threatened to delay the start of spring term, with negotiations set to resume Wednesday. Administrators at Oregon’s largest higher education institution said classes scheduled to begin March 30 may be pushed to April 6 without a deal, while unions representing instructors and classified employees seek cost-of-living increases and restorative pay for time on strike. Thousands of staff members are participating as both sides signal they want an agreement as soon as possible.

Higher education unrest widened as 950 full-time, non-tenure-track New York University professors began a contract strike through Contract Faculty United-UAW. Manufacturing workers mounted separate actions: the union representing 627 Bath Iron Works employees in Maine remained on strike after what the company called its best and final offer, which it said included a 10.1% first-year raise followed by 4% increases over three years, with talks continuing. In Findlay, Ohio, UAW Local 1327 members at Freudenberg-NOK walked out over wages, and Teamsters at WestRock’s Wakefield, Massachusetts packaging facility struck days after a WARN notice for 91 layoffs; the company said the closure is part of optimization efforts.

Key Insight

Campus strikes this week coincided with manufacturing walkouts in Maine, Ohio, and Massachusetts, affecting academic schedules and shipyard and packaging operations.
