COD, support, don’t compete with faculty

When the voters of College of DuPage District 502 approved a $168 million referendum in 2010 for physical improvements at the college, we did so with the understanding that those expenditures would be in support of, and not in competition with, faculty compensation and working conditions that reflect an appreciation for excellence.

With the 4-3 vote to approve (read: impose) an undesirable contract on the faculty, the COD board has failed to honor that implicit understanding. Without question, the students and the residents of District 502 are the losers.
