The California State University administration released a statement citing a “tentative agreement” to postpone the upcoming California Faculty Association strike for consideration of a reopened contract between the CSU and faculty union.

According to the statement, “The proposed five-day faculty strike, slated to begin on April 13, will be postponed pending approval and ratification of the agreement by the CFA Board of Directors and membership.”

If the CFA approves, the tentative agreement will be voted on by the CSU Board of Trustees at the May 24-25 meeting.

CSU Chancellor Timothy White and CFA President Jennifer Eagan will be holding a joint news conference call Friday morning at 10 a.m. at which time they will announce the tentative agreement.

More updates will be posted as they become available.
