I found the discussion quite interesting considering my experiences over the summer with bargaining a negotiated agreement. I found the experiences Dr. Closen shared especially interesting as many of them mirrored experiences we had. One of the surprising things that I learned during the negotiation process was the point that was presented regarding the tactic of making sure the union’s bargaining team looks good when they leave the bargaining table with a negotiated agreement.
The IFT vs. NEA comparison was truly something that I witnessed this summer. The IFT represents my present school. Even the language they used was much more traditional union (calling each other “union brother” for example).
