In the spring of 1968, Claude Bissell, President of the University of Toronto, asked his executive secretary, Frances Ireland, whether or not he should seek the faculty association's support for the reform of the governance of the University. She advised him not to do so. The faculty association, she wrote him, 'is awfully democratic and slow-moving.' In March 1977, the Provost of the University, Donald Chant, informed the faculty association that the University administration would not discuss grievances, working conditions, workloads, leave policy, or salary and benefits negotiations with UTFA. The Governing Council, Chant wrote, could not negotiate away its responsibility to govern the University. In June 1982, Kevin Burkett arbitrated the salary and benefits dispute between UTFA and the University. Burkett wrote that the faculty 'should not be required to subsidize the community through substandard salaries.' Balancing the claims of the administration against those of the faculty association, he concluded that 'The equities weigh heavily in favor of the faculty.'
