FORT MYERS - Edison State College faculty negotiated a higher salary for themselves Friday.

After an impasse hearing last week, the faculty union and administration settled on a 3 percent raise, according to faculty member Marty Ambrose.

Faculty salary will be restored to what it was last summer before the state mandated they contribute 3 percent of pay towards their pension, Ambrose said.

The move has to be approved by the board of trustees which meets on Tuesday.
