AAUP Mission

Advancing academic freedom and shared governance; defining professional values and standards; promoting the economic security of those who teach and research in higher education; organizing to make our goals a reality; and ensuring higher education's contribution to the common good.

WELCOME to the FWC/AAUP

The Faculty Welfare Committee/AAUP at Fairfield University is an ad hoc committee of the General Faculty and a chapter of the national American Association of University Professors. We promote faculty welfare, broadly defined, through chapter programs and activities designed to advance academic freedom, advance the economic and professional status of the faculty, encourage faculty participation in governance, and inform the community about AAUP standards and policy statements to ensure higher education's contribution to the common good.
