Standing by Faculty
"When my academic freedom was in jeopardy, the AAUP made sure that I understood my rights as a faculty member and wrote letters opposing my college’s attempts to circumvent faculty governance. I am grateful to the AAUP Foundation for helping to cover my legal expenses from this ordeal and for its invaluable support for the AAUP’s work to defend academic freedom.”—Johnny Williams, Trinity College, Academic Freedom Fund grant recipient Featured Grant
