HARRISBURG — The Board of Governors of Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education unanimously approved two new collective bargaining agreements this week with unions representing faculty and campus professionals at the 14 state-owned universities.

Members of the Association of Pennsylvania State College & University Faculties and the State College and University Professional Association ratified the contracts earlier in 2019.

Both contracts include no pay increase for the first year.

“Our universities and students are poised for success during the next four years because of these new contracts,” State System Chancellor Dan Greenstein said. “I want to thank APSCUF and SCUPA's leadership teams for their parts in what proved to ultimately be successful teamwork, and I look forward to what we all achieve together during the next four years.”

Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education oversees 14 four-year public universities educating more than 90,000 students.
