Cayuga Community College, faculty union agree on new four-year contract

AUBURN, N.Y. — Cayuga Community College and its faculty union have reached a new four-year contract agreement.

The school’s board of trustees approved the new pact during a meeting held Monday night, Brian Durant, president of Cayuga Community College, said in a news release the school issued that night.

“We are happy to report that the faculty association and the administration of Cayuga Community College have concluded negotiations on a new contract,” said Durant.

The current contract expires Aug. 31. The new deal represents the first time in nearly 30 years that a new faculty contract is in place prior to the expiration of the current pact, the school said. No terms of the contract were disclosed.

The new agreement followed a three-day negotiating process that the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) facilitated. The administration and faculty bargaining teams met to “discuss, deliberate and negotiate” the terms of the new contract during that process.

Founded in 1953, Cayuga Community College is part of the State University of New York (SUNY). The college offers courses and degree programs at campuses in Auburn and Fulton, and online.
