On Thursday, dining hall employees at Tufts voted to authorize a strike. Workers voted to strike following over eight months of negotiations that have not resulted in a new contract. If the strike does occur, it will involve 175 employees. The workers unionized last spring in order to try to achieve benefits that are similar to those experienced by unionized dining hall employees at other universities.
