Our VP @Greene_DM: "according to [UMD] President Pines’s climate survey, 70% of UMD faculty feel uncomfortable w/ the campus climate & 51%, incl. myself, have considered leaving UMD...We keep one eye on the door bc it’s uncomfortable and nothing changes." uamumd.org/uam-umd-vp-daniel…
If you are an AAUP member, you can come to this training. We protect us. And I still believe we will win.
What do the election results mean for higher ed?
To quote Vice President JD Vance: "The professors are the enemy."
We must organize w/ @AAUP @AFTunion @AFTHigherEd to get ready for the coming Project 2025 onslaught on higher ed.

Nothing from @UofMaryland @President_Pines!
Don't count on your institutions to defend you in the coming onslaught on higher ed. Only way to protect ourselves is to organize, organize, organize!

In 2016, dozens of college leaders sent messages to acknowledge the shock of Trump's upset victory. Here's what colleges have said the day after another Trump win. chroni.cl/3UJyNE6

I have been putting more announcements here lately because there's been a lot to announce but I'm not here except for that purpose because Twitter is broken and full of Nazis. Please move to Bluesky, which works like old Twitter and is largely Nazi free.
UMD lost its legal fight to ban SJP & JVP's vigil, but mass restrictions on free speech (sorry "expressive activity") remain. Today @UAM_UMD published an open letter with campus allies calling for an end to those rules and a return to dialogue and sanity uamumd.org/we-must-protect-f…

At Monday’s hearing, UMD Police Chief Mitchell testified that he takes Klan threats seriously, due to their propensity for extreme violence, and it was these racist threats from pro-Israel individuals that led him to recommend the uni bar SJP from holding its vigil on 10/07.
The 8th day of rain couldn't stop the party. Broke bread w union siblings from across UMD and announced that we are now aligned w faculty workers across the state & country as United Academics of Maryland UMD. We're the union for all faculty. We're gonna build a better university
Update: I have received a subjectless email from millionaire UMD donor, and Atlanta Hawks owner, Bruce Levenson, who objects to my description of him as a cranky Facebook uncle just bc he writes angry letters to faculty, with bosses CC'ed, and then fwds them articles for months
I'm in the Baltimore Sun today arguing for UMD's students and teachers and against the culture of fear administrators have imposed not just on protestors, but on everyone.

lol UMD gave me tenure and then celebrated my promotion by skipping a paycheck and canceling my health insurance. We'll be ok. Most won't. It's not because of my union leadership, it's because we are underfunded and a swathe of HR vacancies were just made permanent.
