Yale Makes Contingency Plans As Workers Threaten to Strike

Reiocating

About 200 of Yale's 1600 faculty members have asked union sympathisers for help finding space off campus to hold their classes in the event of a strike and others are making plans to teach in their homes.

Some professors are moving their classes as an acting demonstration of support for the union. Other feel that by doing so they are remaining natural by not making their students to decide whether to cross a picket line, said Teresa J. Odendahl, one of the faculty members helping find space in theaters, churches and community centers for classes.

So far they have managed to relocate about 70 classes, Odendahl said.

Among students not actively supporting the union or the university there is a feeling of being unfairly caught in the middle, said Yale Student Government President Samuel S. Haviland, a junior.

Haviland said the controversy and possible strike work interrupting our daily lives," and that the student government had sent the salon and the university a public letter asking that the debate he resolved quickly so us to avoid drawing students into the fray.

He said that it there is a strike he would cross picket lines to go the library and to class. "I'm going to the library simply because I have un education to complete," he said.
