BACKGROUND NOTE
Through the latter half of the 20th century, there
have been attempts to unionize faculty at South Dakota State
University and across South Dakota. Short-lived attempts by the
American Association of University Professors and the South Dakota
Higher Education Faculty Association ultimately failed, although
they did lay the groundwork for the eventual success of the Council
of Higher Education.
In 1978, the Board of Regents officially recognized
the Council of Higher Education.
The Council of Higher Education (COHE) is the
exclusive representative of the collective bargaining unit for the
purpose of collective bargaining in respect to rates of pay, wages,
hours of employment, grievance procedures and other conditions of
employment. The bargaining unit includes full-time and regular
part-time instructional-research faculty in college and
universities, the Agricultural Experiment Station, Cooperative
Extension Service, Auxiliary Services, the South Dakota School for
the Visually Handicapped and the South Dakota School for the Deaf.
These faculty may not be supervisors. The unit does not include the
Medical School, the Law School, or the Institute of Atmospheric
Sciences.
The unit excludes deans, directors, department
chairpersons, department heads, principals, superintendents, program
managers, and others who are supervisory and managerial, and also
emeritus faculty; teaching and research assistants, clinical
faculty; county agents, county home economists and ROTC personnel.
