Portland State Community,
We are pleased to announce that Portland State University and the PSU chapter of the American Association of University Professors (PSU-AAUP) have reached a tentative agreement on a new contract. The agreement is subject to ratification by PSU-AAUP members.
This agreement, reached after many hours of hard work and negotiation, provides for competitive wages, enhanced job security, professional development support and measures to enhance faculty well-being. The contract settlement recognizes the important contributions of our AAUP-represented faculty members while contributing to the university’s future sustainability and success.
We appreciate both bargaining teams' hard work and dedication in reaching this resolution. AAUP members will soon have the opportunity to vote on the agreement. PSU and PSU-AAUP thank all faculty, staff and students for their patience and support throughout these negotiations, which we believe have resulted in a tentative agreement that meets the needs of faculty, staff, students and the broader university community.
