The lessons of collective bargaining suggest a permanent, political, adversary relationship between teacher associations and school boards. Therefore, administrators must speak for good education, learn well the bargaining skills, and emphasize give and take in bargaining. Teacher associations may be expected to justify their existence, assume privileges to be their rights, ask for more money for less work, and develop group cohesiveness. Because collective bargaining does not reduce conflict or strikes, administrators must not fear strikes, but preserve strong management rights. A glossary of bargaining terms is included. (DW)
