American Association of University Professors (AAUP)

The WMU-AAUP is a faculty-driven union that advocates for academic freedom, due process, shared governance, and the preservation of higher education as a public good.

Negotiations (coming Summer 2026)

The WMU administration is committed to negotiations that are civil, respectful, thoughtful and productive. The goal of the negotiation process is to develop a contract that will be fair and enhance both the academic well being of our students and the campus work environment for our faculty. We also believe it is critical that both parties be accurate and transparent in communicating their respective positions to constituents and the University community at large.
