We are the local chapter of the American Association of University Professors. Since 1915, the AAUP has been dedicated to advancing academic freedom, shared governance, and promoting the economic security of those who teach and research in higher education. We seek to ensure that higher education is oriented to the common good. You can reach us at aauputk@gmail.com
