Unionized part-time faculty at Columbia College are dissatisfied with their union’s lack of communication regarding bargaining issues. The union was preparing workers to strike- some members chose not to participate in the strike authorization vote because they did not have an understanding as to why the strike was deemed necessary. Members have expressed being, “…disappointed in the communication between union leadership and the rank and file…” In addition to issues present within the union, faculty say that they are not treated appropriately by management as a result of their union membership.
