SIUC staff union extends contract amid tight finances
The SIUC Association of Civil Service Employees votes to extend its current contract through June 30, delaying bargaining as the university faces a $19 million operating budget shortfall. Union president Ruth Pommier cites money as the main constraint, with sick leave pay and overall wages remaining a focal point. Chancellor Walter Wendler praises the patience, while four other unions are in varying negotiating phases and await budget guidance.
