No one will be walking a picket line right away, however. Members are to meet Wednesday to discuss a strike deadline.
The University of Winnipeg Faculty Association said it’s still committed to reaching a settlement with the university if possible, and mediated talks are set to begin Thursday.
The union said 73 per cent of 345 eligible members (regular, full-time academic staff) participated in the strike vote.
