Leaders from the Windsor University Faculty Association say they want a contract for their members to be negotiated, and not imposed.
Membership voted 99 per cent in favour of holding a strike vote on Aug. 14. Faculty took the vote during a membership meeting at the Fogolar Furlan Club Wednesday evening.
Professors say they have no interest in disrupting classes come September.
The meeting was held after the University of Windsor imposed a new contract on its 1,000 faculty members.
University of Windsor president, Alan Wildeman says the faculty will get a $1,000 lump sum payment and receive $2,500 added to their base pay.
