RISD Faculty Agree To Concessions To Avoid Layoffs

(Providence, RI)--The Providence Journal reports full-time faculty at the Rhode Island School of Design are agreeing to pension and salary adjustments to avoid faculty layoffs in the upcoming academic year.The layoffs were threatened last month after the school president said the college was hit by a multi-million-dollar deficit caused by the closing of in-person classes this past spring.Other bargaining units will vote on the revised proposal this week, according to the Projo report.
