Classes at Clark College Cancelled Due to Strike

VANCOUVER, Wash. — More than 400 members of the faculty at Clark College are walking off the job on Monday after 15 months of contract negotiations.  A deadline to reach a settlement passed on Friday night without a deal between the union and administration.

The Clark College Association for Higher Education wants more equitable pay for its members.  Members voted to authorize a strike last month.

Classes are cancelled until a deal is reached.  The college says the campus will remain open and most offices and services will be staffed.  Students just returned from winter break last week.

Due to an announced faculty strike, all Clark College classes are canceled for Monday 1/13. College will remain open, some services may be affected. More info: https://t.co/6n1KUHQmax
