Mark Brown, mediator working with TRU administration and TRU Faculty Association bargaining teams has directed the parties to implement a media blackout in order to assist negotiations.
Mediation began last Friday and has continued ever since.

Faculty began job action on Thursday, Jan. 14, but so far no classes have been cancelled.
