ACLS endorses American Historical Association' letter to the Indiana House Education Committee opposing an “Intellectual Diversity” Tenure Bill. We encourage members of our community, particularly those in Indiana, to write to their representatives opposing the bill. bit.ly/49jXc8k

"We urge admin to provide an environment in which no voices are silenced, no ideas are suppressed, & the most deeply held beliefs are subject to challenge." – AAUP president @imulvey in a letter published today in the The New York Times. nytimes.com/2024/02/26/opi…

AAUP members are leaving nothing on the table in the fight to #StopSB202, a bill that would be wholly disastrous for students, faculty, & the future of Indiana higher education. ✊🏽✊🏻✊🏿 #academicfreedom AAUP Purdue BSU_AAUP

It's well-known that #SB202 is a partisan-political bill being pushed through by one party super-majority. Here then is a view from the other party: Ball State AAUP Purdue

Very similar to things happening at Purdue as well.

Another activity for Mental Health Action Week would be for the university to pay its student workers fairly and appropriately

We are not surprised that SB 202 has passed. And the university propaganda email "Purdue Reaffirmation of Academic Freedom and Faculty Tenure" does not make us feel safer or secure in our jobs. Higher education remains under attack and our only line of defense is organizing.

Full solidarity with AAUP Purdue and faculty throughout the state. We are organized and will continue to fight to #StopSB202. Help by calling Gov. Holcomb and tell him you want him to veto this bill! in.gov/gov/ask-eric/

no lie here. actions are more important than words when it comes to university governance.

it should go without saying that we are disappointed. but the work continues! it always continues...

conservative students aren't going into higher education because of their possible professors, they aren't going because conservatives lie about it all the time. IN goes not care about higher edu. they'd fund it more if they did. tribstar.com/news/local_new…

States like FL and IN are afraid of DEI because it challenges the white, patriarchal norm (see: conservative state takes on reproductive health). FL and IN want censorship. not intellectual diversity. gainesville.com/story/news/edu…

when your policies are terrible, you ban the organizations and departments and groups that call out how terrible you are. it's part of the conservative playbook.

We urge @GovHolcomb to Veto SB202. Because: This bill will damage higher education in Indiana, represents a clear case of government overreach, and will drive good faculty as well as research money away from the state. AAUP Purdue American Association of University Professors Ball State

Indiana’s SB 202 is a dangerous, disingenuous culture war inspired bill that gives a green light to pit students against teachers & undermine academic freedom & high quality higher education in Indiana. @GovHolcomb, preserve your exceptional higher education system, #VetoSB202.

another op-ed from Deery claiming that faculty are misinformed about SB 202. no one is misinformed! But now he's shifted to saying that "crosstabs" indicate something in a data set that is publicly unavailable. I'd get laughed out of peer review if I tried that.

woohooo!!

Tim Doty from Purdue University got a few things wrong...it was a report, we collected data from many faculty, and I'm a University Senator and no, none of these issues were addressed extensively with the Senate. purdueexponent.org/campus/article…

a statement from disciplinary experts, APSA about that harms of SB 202. politicalsciencenow.com/statement-on-i…

Indiana’s SB202 carries on a tradition of seeking to silence those who speak out against racial injustice. @GovHolcomb, the AAUP urges you to #VETOSB202. Please read the University Alliance for Racial Justice’s Statement here: inaaup.files.wordpress.com/2024/03/statem… BSU_AAUP AAUP Purdue
