The WMU-AAUP is the Western Michigan University Chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT). Founded in 1950 and becoming a collective-bargaining chapter in 1974, it is a faculty-driven union that advocates for academic freedom, due process, shared governance, and the preservation of higher education as a public good.
With a focus on protecting faculty rights and promoting the welfare of its members, the WMU-AAUP actively engages in negotiations, policy statements, and evaluations to ensure fair treatment and representation. It also provides a platform for faculty to voice concerns and address issues related to administrative abuse, research support, and the overall quality of education at Western Michigan University.
