A new AAUP report, Academic Freedom and Tenure Muhlenberg College, concludes that the administration, in initially dismissing Dr. Maura Finkelstein, acted in violation of AAUP-supported principles and standards of academic freedom and due process. The report also found that the college’s equal opportunity and nondiscrimination policies, developed by outside consultants, do not sufficiently protect academic freedom and due process, nor do they comport with widely accepted standards of academic governance.
