The AAUP Centennial Declaration

Nearly 100 years ago, the American Association of University Professors issued the 1915 Declaration of Principles on Academic Freedom and Academic Tenure. AAUP principles helped build the largest and most successful system of higher education in the world.

The AAUP is now asking member chapters to sign on support a new declaration of principles for the 21st century that restores the status of colleges and universities as a public good. Please read the AAUP Centennial Declaration and let Elise Marubbio (marubbio@augsburg.edu) know if you support our chapter signing on.
