The University and SEIU Local 2 (Hospitality) have reached a tentative agreement. 
 
The union will be holding a meeting Saturday, Jan. 15 beginning at 1:00 p.m. in MDCL 1105, followed by a ratification vote.
  
It is important that all members attend and participate. The union’s bargaining team is recommending members accept the tentative agreement.
