The Executive Officers of UM Ann Arbor’s Chapter of the AAUP wish to reaffirm our commitment to protect academic freedom. With reference to the AAUP statements on Academic Freedom in Times of War (October 24, 2023) and Polarizing Times Demand Robust Academic Freedom (November 15, 2023), we maintain the principle of academic freedom in the classroom–and teaching about Israel, Palestine, and events of the moment is no exception.
