Union agreement to transfer policy under which teachers would "follow their students" in school consolidation did not violate DFR. Even though some teachers with high seniority did not select their choice of assignments, the union decision was not arbitrary, discriminatory or in bad faith. The union had rational basis in choosing policy because it resulted in less disruption.
