Background
In August 2024, representatives from the University of Vermont (UVM) and Graduate Students United—UAW 2322 (GSU) began working together to establish the inaugural collective bargaining agreement (CBA), which will govern the relationship between UVM and the GSU.
As of April 9, 2026, the bargaining teams have met 33 times to discuss key topics for the first CBA. Below is an overview of the bargaining process and the progress made by both bargaining teams to date.
