Abstract

This study analyzed eighteen variables within faculty collective bargaining agreements negotiated at 89 two-year institutions of higher education that had a ten-year history of collective bargaining to determine whether contracts negotiated in 1975 significantly differed from those negotiated in 1985. Using an ordinally-scaled hierarchy that showed the direction of faculty control, it was found through contract analysis that the 1985 agreements contained an increased frequency and an expansion of scope and content for the 18 items, as well as an increase In faculty control over some items.
