CFA (California Faculty Association) at CSU has announced that the CSU faculty have approved Chancellor Reed's furlough plan by a margin of 54 to 46. Many found the choice a difficult one, citing the need to protect students and jobs. However, the faculty also voted no confidence in Reed in overwhelming numbers -- 79% voting "no confidence"; 17% voting "don't know"; and only 4% voting to support the chancellor. Over 8,800 members voted.
Also see the earlier announcement from CSU Employees Union (CSUEU). Here is the CSUEU FAQ page, which also provides a link to the tentative agreement between the union and CSU.
Update: Here's the San Diego Union Tribune on the story.
