Separate law school faculty union urged
Law School professors at the University of Kansas say the Law School has enough unique features to have bargaining unit from other university faculty members.
A bargaining unit was established by the state Public Employee Relations Board last November to allow KU faculty members to attend meetings of their employer about issues that concern them.

In January, an appeal signed by 22 Law School faculty members was presented to the board, which argued for a separate bargaining unit.
Donald Hoffman, Kansas assistant attorney general, said yesterday the board functioned as a "quast-judicial body" and before wasn't a proper party to the appeal.
Hoffman said the main conflict was between the Law School faculty and the KU administration. The administration agrees with the board that the Law School shouldn't be given a separate bargaining unit, Hoffman said.
THE BOARD HAS decided to intervene in the situation, he said, to make certain its
initial orders for a single large bargaining unit are defended properly.
Hoffman said all members of the faculty occupying a position below the level of department chairman would be included in the unit.
Raymond Goetz, professor of law, said he questioned the appropriateness of a large single unit. Because the Law School is a private institution, such a unit should be given a separate bargaining unit.
Goetz said he didn't know why the board and the University hadn't agreed with the matter. He said he thought the woman on the separate unit, "if哭言 prevails," to the separate unit.
GOETZ SAID OTHER universities such as Pennsylvania, colorado, Nebraska and Minnesota considered their law schools and Kansas shouldn't be behind the times.
Mike Davis, university counsel, said he would support the board's proposal for a large bargaining unit. He said the plan would be followed by School had some features that differed from
other schools in the University, it was much like the others and should be treated the
A hearing is set for April 2 in Douglas County District Court. The board will argue its evidence and attempt to become a party in the proceedings, along with the university administration, to keep the Law School from receiving a separate bargaining unit.
