“Faculty, students, & staff are leading the fight back against Trump’s outrageous attacks on higher education…we will continue to lead & move our universities to stand up with us.” — Todd Wolfson, AAUP President on @CNN. #DefendHigherEd
Southern Miss is in great financial shape w/ strong reserves & cash on hand. So why are faculty paid 20% less then their peers & admin salaries 2 to 4 times more than faculty salaries? Make it make sense! Please sign/share below for fair pay @ USM: change.org/p/petition-for…
"Understanding University Budgets" Wednesday, April 16 at 4:30pm ET/3:30pm CT/2:30pm MT/1:30pm PT. Budgets are moral documents! What are our institutions' true values? Lets find out through this introduction to university budget research. Register at us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
Harvard AAUP & the nat'l AAUP have jointly filed a lawsuit & TRO to block the Trump admin from demanding that Harvard restrict speech & undermine academic freedom or else lose $8.7 billion in federal funds. This action challenges the Trump admin's misuse of funds for coercion.
Trump’s proposed cuts to NIH funding jeopardize medical research that benefits millions of working people. On April 8, UAW members across the country are taking action to demand our reps #KillTheCuts and save lifesaving research, healthcare, & education. killthecuts.org…
“I want to make this clear: Trump’s cuts & the attacks on Columbia’s medical school KILL.” - Todd Wolfson, AAUP President speaking at today’s press conference at the NY Columbia Medical Center on the new lawsuit filed by AAUP/AFT on the weaponization of Federal Research Funds.
“The abduction, caging, and deportation of noncitizen students on ideological grounds threatens the university’s purpose and function because the pursuit of knowledge cannot prosper in a climate of fear and repression.” thecrimson.com/article/2025/3…
“The attack on Columbia is a radical threat to scholarly excellence and to America’s leadership in research,” writes Princeton president Christopher L. Eisgruber. “Universities and their leaders should speak up and litigate forcefully”: theatln.tc/terkcJkl
We call on all those who care about the future of education & democracy in the US to stand up now against these monstrous assaults on our core principles of freedom of speech, student & faculty safety, & free inquiry and thought. Now is the time. When we fight, we win.
Please follow the AAUP on Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/aaup.b… Let’s build a strong national movement to defend higher education. We have a lot of work ahead of us.
"Power is being taken away from individual institutions & consolidated in the hands of the chancellor & the legislature - dominated by MAGA supporters & ultra-conservatives." Senate Bill 1 guts academic freedom and reshapes Ohio’s public universities ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/03/20/sen…
A thousand students, faculty, and community members protesting SB 1 at the Statehouse. #StopSB1
"What we are seeing at Columbia is unprecedented: the federal government forcing an academic institution to acquiesce to its ideological beliefs." — Isaac Kamola, director of the AAUP's Center for the Defense of Academic Freedom on CNN today.
‘Cowardice & capitulation’: AAUP condemns Columbia for outrageous assault on freedom of speech, student & faculty safety, shared governance, & free inquiry & thought. columbiaspectator.com/news/2025/03/1…
Trekked uptown for the first time in awhile to stand in solidarity with @SW_Columbia as they fight for a fair contract that protects all student workers, to free Mahmoud Khalil, and to demand the reinstatement of their illegally-fired president Grant Miner and many others.
Columbia University’s immediate submission & betrayal of the core mission of higher education reflects cowardice and capitulation to a government that appears intent on destroying US higher education. Full statement from AAUP President Todd Wolfson: aaup.org/news/cowardice…
Columbia has expelled the president of @SW_Columbia, a HELU member org, for participation in Palestine solidarity activism. This comes less than 24 hours before SWC's first bargaining session. We stand with Columbia's workers and students against this. uaw.org/in-shocking-mo…
“It’s an escalation of a kind that is unheard of,” said Joan Scott, a historian & member of the academic freedom committee of the AAUP. “Even during the McCarthy period in the United States, this was not done.” apnews.com/article/columb…
This is the plan they have for U.S. colleges and universities. Workers and students must come together to defend our right to free speech, just working conditions, and safety in our workplaces. We must resist.
"This is going to be a long fight. We need everyone on board. This is why we’re developing a multi-pronged approach to organizing. This is the only way to stop the anti-worker policies being pushed by the Trump administration." – AAUP VP Rotua Lumbantobing msmagazine.com/2025/03/14/ami…
