Professor Watchlist

Colleagues,

Many of you have already heard of the right wing Professor Watchlist which claims it will “expose faculty who advance leftist propaganda in the classroom.”

UUP stands with our colleagues across the country and in sister organizations such as AFT and AAUP in condemning such a list as a threat to academic freedom and to academic inquiry. Lists like this have been used to harass and intimidate faculty and have a chilling effect on our work in higher education.

Please join me in standing up for free speech, academic freedom and higher education. https://actionnetwork.org/forms/add-my-name-to-the-professor-watchlist?sp_ref=253116870.374.177497.e.562954.5&source=email

Now – when the forces of ignorance and repression are on the march – is the time for all of us to stand together in defense of the principles of freedom of thought and free inquiry.

In Solidarity,
Fred
