Members of Eastern Illinois University's Local 4100 of the University Professionals of Illinois have voted to ratify a contact with the university.

The agreement was approved by 92% of the members who voted. Tuesday's vote came after the agreement was reached on April 13, following a six-day strike.

Faculty and staff will receive an overall raise of 15% over the four years of the contract, retroactive to September 2022, when the previous agreement expired.
