Bargaining updates 38-40

Breakthroughs on several issues were made during sessions on November 19th, 25th, and 26th. Tentative agreements relating to ten particular issues of concern to PSC members were reached and signed. These agreements are contingent on the signed agreement of both parties to a full Memorandum of Agreement on all issues. Negotiations on other matters will continue while the PSC presses CUNY management for an economic offer that improves on their most recent offer of November 15.
