AAUP SHU

Founded in November 2024, we invite all eligible SHU faculty, both full-time and part-time, to join our chapter. We will be holding meetings and socials over the rest of this academic year to introduce you to what the AAUP chapter is about and why we think you will want to be part of it. Our growing membership will decide the activities and actions that the chapter undertakes.

You can read our values and aims below. See our executive committee members and read our bylaws at About.

You can find about membership at Join.

No one will advocate for faculty and our profession if we don't do so ourselves. Come be part of the solution!

• • We believe that the entire SHU community can only benefit from an informed and empowered faculty.

  • We aim to promote a strong, meaningful role for SHU faculty in shared governance by...

    1. 1. Contributing to efforts to reform and improve shared governance,

       2. Participating as faculty members in shared governance and in the whole range of committees at the university, and

       3. Serving as a strong, independent voice advocating for faculty.

  • We advocate for the health, safety, and well-being of the SHU community.

  • We support a fair and manageable workload.

  • We affirm the faculty’s decision-making role in matters that directly impact the education of our students.
