Dual AAUP/AFT affiliates are currently in existence at several institutions, representing more than 20,000 faculty and staff.. Among its goals::Ending the practice of using low-cost, temporary faculty to undercut academic freedom and the tenure system.Opposing attempts to strip faculty of their right to research and teach subjects addressing inequities in American society.
The new partnership is expected to increase future faculty organizing as well as serve as the basis for an enhanced faculty voice on matters of importance to them. AAUP President Irene Mulvey said, “The AAUP has been the voice and conscience of higher education for well over 100 years. This weekend, subject to ratification at the biennial meeting in June, the AAUP governing council voted to recommend expanding our partnership with AFT. This truly historic decision builds on our 10-plus year partnership with AFT and strengthens both organizations, while ensuring that the AAUP will maintain its independence and autonomy.
