A word from my colleagues across the Potomac at GMU:
"...Singling out a Black leader in this way is not only unprecedented but also deeply troubling, echoing a long and shameful history of weaponizing law and bureaucracy to undermine the legitimacy of leaders of color." #SaveHigherEd #AcademicSky

Trump's Dept of Ed has released the preordained findings of its "investigation" into GMU, which we predict they will use to supplant our successful president with a Trump/Youngkin ally.
This is our statement in response.
We will fight for the integrity of GMU.

Why is the government and the news so indifferent to the meltdown happening in UK #HigherEd right now?
Our universities are the envy of the world. Yet we are at risk of losing a generation of academics and damaging the sector beyond repair.

Yet he seems ok to let that sector implode.

I'd venture to say ANY academic professional. Those without faculty status are welcome to join as associate members.
Many academic librarians are not and as noted in a recent post, the AAUP has historically upheld our need for Academic Freedom.
We need all of us in the fight to #SaveHigherEd.

The @aaup.org beat Marco Rubio in court, with a Reagan-appointed judge ruling that ideological deportations obviously violate the first amendment.
These cases cost money. And we need millions of people moving together to make them stick. If you're faculty in the US, join AAUP and join the fight.

Thank you, Penn. "While the loss of federal funding would threaten Penn’s ability to perform its vital education and research work, agreeing to this compact would not forestall that outcome... a concession to threats will simply embolden the Trump administration to come back for more." #SaveHigherEd

As a former student affairs professional, this is infuriating and goes against everything I was taught and know about what higher education should be. #fuckracists #savehighered
The headline doesn't do the article justice.
Trump's admin is arguing that anything like Black Student Associations, Black History Month events, programs to retain minorities, etc are illegal and worthy of defunding the school.

If we are going to beat back Trump admin's attack on higher ed & remake our sector to be even better, we need many more faculty like Terence Tao who make the hard decision to put career advancement on the back burner & commit to organizing & fighting for higher ed.
Join @aaup.org & get organizing.

"Tao is one of the most prominent mathematicians and academics to publicly oppose the administration’s actions, calling them an “existential threat” to his field, and academic science, more broadly. He said public advocacy is a priority over his research, for now."
