We are the University of Pennsylvania chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP–Penn), a membership organization that advocates for the interests of Penn faculty and for a just university that meets its obligations to the city and the community. We welcome members from all departments and all schools at Penn, and we apply the broadest definition of faculty: all those employed primarily in research and/or teaching at a professional level regardless of title, including standing faculty, contingent faculty, graduate researchers and instructors, postdocs, and librarians, archivists, curators, and technicians whose work involves or substantially contributes to research or teaching. Our goals include promoting academic freedom and meaningfully shared university governance; improving working conditions; and building solidarity among university workers across ranks and job categories at Penn and across institutions. We are a member-led chapter, and our advocacy is defined by the priorities you choose to work on together with colleagues. In addition to the elected Executive Committee, there is currently an active Non-Tenure-Track Faculty Task Force, an Academic Freedom Task Force, a Labor Solidarity Task Force, a Grievance Procedure Task Force, and a Task Force on Health, Safety, and Disability. Contact us to join a task force or committee or to start a new one.
