Welcome
Welcome to the Macalester Chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), the primary organization in the United States advocating and organizing in defense of Academic Freedom and the protections of tenure for faculty. This post includes brief notes about the mission of the AAUP, our monthly meetings, how to join the AAUP, subsidies available to defray the cost of AAUP dues, and joining our email list.
The mission of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) is to advance academic freedom and shared governance; to define fundamental professional values and standards for higher education; to promote the economic security of faculty, academic professionals, graduate students, post‐doctoral fellows, and all those engaged in teaching and research in higher education; to help the higher education community organize to make our goals a reality; and to ensure higher education’s contribution to the common good.
Monthly Meetings
The Macalester Chapter of the AAUP meets monthly, on the Wednesday immediately following each month’s Tuesday Faculty Meeting, from 4:45-5:45 pm. Our usual meeting place is in Carnegie 06A (ground floor). We make regular announcements about our meetings in the monthly faculty meeting, and place reminders in the Mac Daily emails on the day of, and two days prior to, the meeting itself.
