Puerto Rico Students Approve Strike Settlement

Students from the University of Puerto Rico have ratified an agreement to end the strike that shut ten of UPR’s eleven campuses for nearly two months.
Some three thousand students met yesterday to approve the agreement in a mass meeting. They also voted to call another strike in January if the administration fails to keep its end of the deal or attempts to impose new fees.
