Membership in the AAUP says that you’re concerned about academic freedom, and about the way that basic freedom protects your teaching and research. It says that participating in faculty governance is important to you, and that you are concerned about career issues, tenure, and the overuse of contingent faculty. AAUP members, which include faculty members, academic professionals, and graduate students, help to shape the future of our profession and proclaim their dedication to the education community. In addition, there are many practical benefits--discounts, insurance programs, financial incentives--available to AAUP members. Reaffirm your commitment today to promoting and protecting your profession.
If you teach at an institution where AAUP has a collective bargaining agreement, please contact the local chapter or if you teach in Nevada, please contact the Nevada Faculty Alliance.
