What We Do

The Ohio State University Association of University Professors (AAUP) is the advocacy chapter for OSU faculty across all ranks. We strive to ensure just working conditions and promote values of institutional transparency, academic freedom, and shared governance. Our organization is also active in reclaiming higher education as an affordable and equitable public good. We welcome alliances with staff and students working toward similar goals.
 
Affiliated with the national AAUP, our chapter responds in depth to conditions local to OSU. We are not a formal union, but we firmly believe in the power of collective action, coalition-building, and shared information. Our actions and events strengthen individuals and groups through mutual support.
