The meeting did not result in any resolutions but provided a valuable opportunity to explore the issues with an experienced PERB representative. The University remains steadfast in our commitment to engage with students and to advance our educational and research mission. The University maintains that, given recent developments such as the <em>Vanderbilt University v. National Labor Relations Board<\/em> decision and changes in federal support for our research and education missions, entering into a private election agreement is not in the institution&#8217;s best interest. The students continue to have \u2013 and have always had \u2013 access to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) supervised election process for union representation, rather than engaging in a potentially disruptive strike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>University of Rochester met with NYS\u00a0PERB mediator over the planned grad student strike.
