“Police do not anticipate a safety problem but are prepared,” Bauguess said. “They have met with both the union and the administration and both parties are working hard to follow all local and state laws as well as university demonstration policies.”
During the AAUP-WSU strike, all parking lots and areas of the university will be in operation as normal, the shuttle service will run from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday.
“Students can be confident that access to the university will be open and safe as it always is, but will have active demonstrations at a couple of the entrances as long as some members of the faculty union strike,” Bauguess said.
Wright State also has a page available for labor relations and picketing.
