SUMMARY:Politicizing Accreditation in the South and Beyond (AAUP)
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will discuss the implications of dropping independent accreditation systems for the state-controlled Commission for Public Higher Education (CPHE). Although its planning document includes some seemingly harmless language\, the CPHE is dominated by powerful conservative politicians\, like Florida Governor Ron DeSantis\, who likely want to use it to extend their control of the State University System of Florida\, the Texas A&M University System\, the University System of Georgia\, the University of North Carolina System\, the University of South Carolina System\, the University of Tennessee System\, and other higher education systems in the south and beyond. This webinar will explore the historic importance of independent accreditation systems for maintaining professional norms and standards for public higher education and examine the threats a politicized accreditation system poses to academic freedom\, faculty voice in curriculum\, and shared governance. \nClick the link below to sign up.

SUMMARY:Blitz Week: March 30-Apri 4 from 10 AM to 6 PM
DESCRIPTION:As a member-run\, worker-to-worker organized union\, your experience as a member of UFF-FAU is one of our strongest points of argument for new faculty and nonmembers to join our movement. We need 117 people to join to reach 60%. The only way we get this done is the way we get anything done: we do it together. \nOur core recruiters have continuously spoken with new faculty and nonmembers for many months\, discussing the union\, their need to join\, and the upcoming blitz. Many of these people are primed to join. Meeting you and hearing why you are a member while you discuss their concerns and interests will likely make the difference in seeing their way to joining. \nWe have set up two-hour shifts throughout the week – from Monday\, March 31st\, and ending on Friday\, April 4th\, with our last Happy Hour of the semester at The Irishmen from 4-6 pm. We will start our recruitment days at 10 am and end at 6 pm. Reach out to Jake Henson or Chris Robe’ to sign up for shifts.  \nYou will go out in pairs\, accompanied by more experienced recruiters. We will assign you locations where you are most comfortable recruiting. Your involvement in speaking to your colleagues about the union shows non-members that faculty are the union and that many of us are willing to engage to the point of outreaching to others about the importance of our union and joining. \nIt’s time to directly get involved.

SUMMARY:Solidarity Cinema Series: Union (2024)
