APA Committee for the Defense of
Professional Rights of Philosophers

Committee News

Posted July 24, 2003

The Defense Committee, jointly with the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), is sponsoring panel discussions of the defense of professional rights at each of the divisional APA meetings in 2003-2004. Each session will include brief presentations by one of the members of the AAUP national staff who works on the issues of Committee A: Academic Freedom and Tenure, and by a member of the APA Defense Committee. The sessions are intended to provide an opportunity for members of the profession to bring forward questions and comments as well as to find out more about how the AAUP and the APA work to protect and defend members' rights.

New PhDs, part-time, and adjunct faculty are especially encouraged to attend.
