Excerpts on Selected Topics in Collective Bargaining Agreements and a Brief Review of the Status of Collective Bargaining in Community Colleges 1972 to 1975; an ERIC Brief.

To acquaint the faculty and administrators with the scope and breadth of community college collective bargaining agreements, excerpts of selected topics are reproduced in this document without comment. On each topic two or three excerpts from different agreements are reproduced. The following topics are treated: (1) recognition of the employee bargaining unit and categories of employees covered; (2) rights of the employee bargaining unit; (3) management rights; (4) agency shop, check-off, and fair practices; and (5) workload. The references include the names of the employer and employee units, the number of colleges covered in the agreement, the years covered, and bibliographic citation. In addition, two tables are presented which show the number of college faculties choosing various units as exclusive bargaining agents and the states in which colleges are operating under collective bargaining agreements. The Brief concludes with an index of a collective bargaining agreement. (Author/MJK)
