STRIKE ACTIVITIES AND POST-STRIKE PERCEPTIONS AMONG UNIVERSITY-FACULTY

Based upon the returned questionnaires of 415 striking faculty members from the University of Saskatchewan, this study shows that faculty me mbers who have attended the study session, and those who have been act ive in past union meetings were more likely to get involved in picketi ng and in picket organizing during the course of the strike. Analysis of their post-strike perceptions shows that the faculty attitudes towa rds the effectiveness of the strike, strike length, and back-to-work l egislation were closely related to the militancy of the faculty during the strike.
