by Diverse Staff , September 8, 2009

Oakland University in Rochester, Mich., will cancel classes again today.  The university plans to head to court to ask a judge to order professors back to work.  According to the Detroit Free Press, the faculty and the university disagree over several points, including increasing medical insurance rates, pay raises, hiring more instructors on contract and the amount of input they have in school matters. Classrooms have been empty since Thursday, what was supposed to be the first day of school.
