A five-week-long strike has come to an end at the University of Manitoba as classes are back on.

The union representing the University of Manitoba Faculty Association reached a tentative deal with university officials on Sunday night and members voted on it Monday evening. In all, 881 members voted in favour and just 88 were against it. 969 out of the union's 1,264 members cast a ballot.

The strike was the longest in the union's history. 

Despite the missed class time, the university's president Michael Bannaroch expects students will still be able to graduate on schedule as planned.
