Suffolk Superior Court judge struck down an injunction request by the teachers hours before the School Committee's vote to tentatively approve the university plan The union contends the plan is an unconstitutional transfer of public duties to a private A institution Judge Walter Steele said questionable constitutional issues existed in the BU proposal and suggested the two sides work to solve them Steele added however court intervention was not necessary now because the matter has not been finalized “We are not trying to block BU" said Jane Usdan a spokeswoman for the American Federation of Teachers the national parent of the Massachusetts chapter “We are trying to work with them" - Usdan said the union would wait for the final draft of the proposal before considering its next move City educators fear one of the first things the university will do is try to break the teachers union BU won a legal battle last year to abolish its faculty union 10689 We’re Entertainment! 70 East 400 North |
