Faculty attitudes toward collective bargaining at a prestigious public medical school indicate considerable ambivalence toward unionization. As might be expected, salary dissatisfaction is the greatest cause of faculty discontent; however, it is not the most important factor in favoring collective strength. The irony is that the faculty members most in favor of collective bargaining are least dissatisfied with their salary levels. Conversely, the highest earning faculty members are least in favor of unionization but most dissatisfied with their salary scale. The study reported here shows that faculties perceive the protection or enhancement of collegiality as the single most important factor influencing their attitudes toward unionization. This perception suggests that faculties see collective bargaining as a means of strengthening their position relative to greater inclusion in the decision-making processes of the medical school.
There is little doubt that collective bargaining is here to stay in hospital nursing, and it adds a new dimension to the nursing administrator's area of responsibility. Careful planning and preparation for participation, trust and open communication, an attitude of acceptance, and a focus on the positive aspects of the negotiations will place the nursing administrator in an advantageous position in regard to collective bargaining in any practice setting.

In thier survey of organizational structures in American dental schools, Dilts and Fields reported that the organization and administration of dental schools are of importance in the operation and attainment of educational goals. If one institutional goal is to provide faculty with attractive working conditions, then academic tenure and collective bargaining are important. In this respect, dental schools run true to higher education form. Having great variability, tenure systems were reported to be universal in dental schools. On the other hand, collective bargaining was found to be a new phenomenon on trial. The experience of dental schools with academic tenure and the trial of collective bargaining are of some interest to all college educators. Dilts and Fields concluded that "Although dental education is traditional in nature, resisting changes as do other phases of higher education, the results indicate that dental education is dynamic and is responding to internal as well as external needs." Dental educators may wish to follow these tenure and union issues to help determine successful policies for the conditions of dental faculty employment.
This is the second in a series of articles written by members of the professional affairs committee of The American Society of Radiologic Technologists. The first article alluded to the analogy of a person who was learning to drive vis-a-vis a person who was learning about collective bargaining. The article suggested that the first step might be to study the rules of the road and in this context discussed briefly some of the federal laws that affect the collective bargaining relationship between employees and their employers. In this article, the analogy is carried still further in a discussion of the various types of organizations or groups that could be used for bargaining purposes.
