The California State University system is facing a five-day strike by nearly 30,000 faculty members and other employees beginning Monday.

"Our faculty are under paid and overworked so they are willing to withhold their labor to send the strongest message possible to the California State University system that we need a fair contract," said Charles Toombs, the president of CFA and a professor at San Diego State.
