Abstract

This study examined the impact of demographic variables on faculty attitude toward collective bargaining. The data were obtained from questionnaires administered to faculty members of a midsize, non-Ph.D.-granting, public university in Indiana in 1991. Four major types of bargaining issues: personnel, governance, compensation and academic were tested against demographic variables. The study revealed that a significant difference exists between faculty opinions toward collective bargaining based on rank, tenure status, income and gender. Academic discipline, highest degree held and age do not make any difference in respondents' replies.
