This just came in on Academe Today's DAILY REPORT for subscribers of The Chronicle of Higher Education [snip] * THE UNION representing faculty members and librarians at York University voted grudgingly Tuesday to end a bitter strike that had disrupted classes since March 20. The strike was the longest ever at an English-language university in Canada. Is this a Good Thing, or a Bad Thing, York folks? Should we be congratulating you on being off the picket lines, or commiserating that it all didn't do much good in the end? -- Russ __|~_ Russell A.
