The UNO AAUP provides a number of benefits to faculty on our campus.

We are the bargaining unit for faculty contracts. We negotiate on behalf of all full-time tenure-track and tenured faculty and instructors and represent faculty in contract disputes. Our grievance officer also helps members navigate their rights under the contract. We consult regularly with administration and faculty regarding contract issues and provide advice on matters of academic freedom. Joining the UNO AAUP as a dues-paying member supports this important work.

Dues paying members also have the opportunity to:

• Attend member social happy-hours and dinners.
• Vote on or serve in UNO chapter leadership and contract ratification.
• Participate in the Nebraska Conference of the AAUP.
• Get access to National AAUP benefits, such as webinars, guidebooks, a subscription to Academe, and discount insurance programs.

The UNO AAUP:

• Represents faculty in any contract disputes
• Consults with faculty regarding contract issues
• Maintains a presence at the Nebraska Unicameral
• Sponsors regular Thursday Happy Hours
