We are an advocacy chapter of the AAUP (American Association of University Professors). That means we work with other stakeholders on campus to advocate for faculty rights and shared governance. See some of the issues we have worked on here. We are not a faculty union, although other campuses do have unionized AAUP chapters. We do no collect chapter dues but encourage all faculty to join the national organization.
Who We Are

The other members of our Executive Committee are Kate Mullaugh (Associate Professor of Chemistry), Blake Scott (Assistant Professor of International Studies), and Elisa Jones (Assistant Professor of History and Women's and Gender Studies Affiliate Faculty).
