Dear John,
This year, the AAUP secured multiple legal victories—including a recent victory in AAUP v. Trump, which stopped the Trump administration from unlawfully restricting free speech and academic freedom across the University of California system through punitive cuts to federal research funds. This means faculty, students, and staff can continue teaching, learning, and researching without succumbing to government interference. While that historic win is certainly worthy of celebration, there is still more work to be done to protect academic freedom.
Donate now and help us keep fighting!
The AAUP’s victory in the UC system is supported by the AAUP Foundation, the charitable arm of the AAUP enterprise. However, new attacks on academic freedom appear at every turn. You too can support this work by including the AAUP Foundation in your end-of-year giving.
Give today!
The AAUP Foundation provides essential resources for legal battles to defend higher education. Your contribution directly empowers legal advocacy and other vital work. Whether Foundation grantees are standing up to unconstitutional policies or defending faculty voices, your gift ensures we remain strong, strategic, and relentless.
We welcome your gift of any amount.
In solidarity,
Todd Wolfson
President, AAUP and AAUP Foundation
