Q-2.-1'-... 4 X 1 X AFT vs. New jersey Are you going to graduate on time? For months, seniors at the 8 state colleges in New Jersey have been asked that question. No one seemed to answer. A strike was set for Monday, Feb. 4, by the AFT and called at midnight. About 15 minutes later, GSC heard that it had been postponed one week until Feb. 11. A meeting in Tohill Auditorium on Feb. 4 revealed that they did indeed make great strides with the state after many long and frustrating hours of work. Dr. Rose Glass- berg, president of AFT Local 2373 and Albert Taylor, chief negotiator for the local, pre- sented a list and explanations on what was acceptable to both sides. They also presented some remaining issues yet to be negotiated. AFT meeting pictures, page 20.
