As former president of the faculty association at Cleveland State University, I cannot praise AAUP enough. They were superb in their help at all phases of our initial campaign and when we negotiated o...ur first and consecutive contracts. There is no better resource for faculty at US institutions of higher learning! GO AAUP! See More

It does not matter if you are liberal or conservative. I happen to be liberal. Defending a woman who threatens violence on students is wrong. Melissa Click was rightly fired. Any professor who spe...aks to students like that should be barred from education. See More

This is a group of liberal scum bags who support other fascists anti-free speech scum like Melissa Click.

Attacking Mizzou because they sacked the thug Dr Melissa Click. What would it take for you to supporting the firing of a professor? Cannibalism?

The AAUP has just spoken in favor of freedom of speech. I'm proud of my profession.

Deceitfully evading and ignoring the fundamentals and facts regarding physics/physical experience. Here is the clear and irrefutable evidence:

The unification AND balancing of physics: Why it is not ...a coincidence that the moon and the sun appear to be the same size:

ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity is electromagnetism/energy. This is proven by F=ma AND E=mc2. "Mass"/energy involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance consistent with/as what is balanced ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL force/energy, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity.

Gravitational force/energy is proportional to (or balanced with/as) inertia/inertial resistance, as electromagnetism/energy is gravity. Accordingly, gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance; as gravity is electromagnetism/energy. (Motion is relative.) Therefore, a given planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times; AND this is then consistent with F=ma, E=mc2, AND what is perpetual motion; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. This explains why the stars appear as what are basically balanced points of light to us on earth. Very importantly, balance and completeness go hand in hand. This provides for a scale invariant and universal unification AND balancing of physics/physical experience. Gravitational force/energy is proportional to (or balanced with/as) inertia/inertial resistance, as gravity IS electromagnetism/energy. This explains the cosmological redshift AND the "black holes", as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy IS gravity. Great. "Mass"/energy involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance consistent with/as what is balanced ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL force/energy, as electromagnetism/energy IS gravity. This explains F=ma AND E=mc2, as gravity IS electromagnetism/energy. Gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance, as electromagnetism/energy IS gravity. Motion is relative.

Energy has/involves gravity, AND energy has/involves inertia/inertial resistance. The speed of light involves balanced inertial resistance. "Mass"/energy are linked AND balanced, AND gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND balanced; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity is electromagnetism/energy. A photon may be placed at the center of the sun, as the reduction of space is offset by (or balanced with) the speed of light, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity is electromagnetism/energy. This is proven by E=mc2 AND F=ma, as this involves what is possible/potential AND actual in balance. Both equations apply to and describe the sun. Gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance, as electromagnetism/energy is gravity. Excellent !!! Motion is relative. Physics/physical experience makes sense. Indeed, the integrated extensiveness of thought (AND description) is improved in the truly superior mind. That is what constitutes the ultimate in top down thinking. Indeed, reality, truth, AND nature/natural experience go hand in hand. Now, do consider the appearance of the sun in outer "space". Think about the stars. Great.

Inertia/inertial resistance is proportional to (or balanced with/as) gravitational force/energy, as this balances AND unifies ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy AND gravity; as this balances gravity AND inertia. (This explains F=ma AND E=mc2.) Gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance, as electromagnetism/energy is gravity. Great !!! Really think about this. The truth is simple, AND the simplest explanation is the best explanation. Very importantly, less explains less in physics; AND more explains more.

Most importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black.

Space that is invisible AND visible in balance IS the middle distance in/of space. Now, look down at the fully visible earth/ground; AND then look up at what is the semi-spherical blue sky. Consider the appearance of the BLUE earth from outer "space" in conjunction with the fact that half of the earth remains constantly illuminated. Excellent. Notice that the curvature of the earth/ground (given a clear horizon, of course) does match up with the shape of the moon. Moreover, the composition of lunar rocks is practically identical to that of earth rocks. The high tide is thus understood as involving what is a linked AND balanced ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL effect. Very carefully consider the variable appearance of the moon, including the fact that it appears blue as well. Gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance, as gravity is electromagnetism/energy. Accordingly, the rotation of the moon matches its revolution. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. So, the setting, orange, AND flat sun (with the space around it then going INVISIBLE/visible) is understood as constituting a fundamentally linked AND balanced electromagnetic/gravitational manifestation in relation to what is lava AND the earth/ground. The photon(s) AND the black hole(s) are linked AND balanced opposites, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. The eye is manifest and experienced as invisible AND visible in balance. Notice the VISIBLE dome of what is the eye/body in relation to the flat and black space in the eye. Think about it all very carefully. Great. Finally, take a LOOK at the semi-spherical blue sky in relation to what is the EARTH/ground. Magnificent !!! Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Electromagnetism/energy IS gravity.

Inertia/inertial resistance is proportional to (or balanced with/as) gravitational force/energy, as this balances AND unifies ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy and gravity; as this balances gravity AND inertia. In fact, dream experience is fully and always consistent with/as this very great truth/law. Dream experience is possible/potential AND actual in balance. In dreams, it is you AND other than you are in balance. Dreams balance being AND experience, and dreams balance conscious and unconscious experience. So, dream experience and wakeful experience are fundamentally linked AND fundamentally balanced; and they are separate experiences. There is no outsmarting the genius of dream experience. Dream experience is/involves true/real quantum gravity. In dreams, bodily/visual experience is invisible AND visible in balance. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy IS gravity. Dreams make thought MORE LIKE sensory experience in general, thereby improving upon memory AND understanding. Thoughts are invisible. Think about it. Great.

It is a great and a very deep truth/fact that the self represents, forms, and experiences a comprehensive approximation of experience in general by combining conscious and unconscious experience. Moreover, it is also most important that the ability of thought to DESCRIBE OR reconfigure sensory experience is ULTIMATELY dependent upon the extent to which thought is SIMILAR to sensory experience. Dream experience is not a creation of thought. Television is a creation of thought. Think about it. It all makes perfect sense. (Thoughts are invisible.) Dreams combine, balance, and include opposites. The ultimate unification of physics combines, balances, and includes opposites. This article fully reveals what is ULTIMATELY fundamental and foundational regarding physics/physical experience. Most importantly, bear in mind that enormous amounts of money are STILL being made in conjunction with changing experience from what was natural. This is a very serious matter.

January 31 is the deadline for submissions for the 2018 volume of the Journal of Academic Freedom. We're looking for original, scholarly articles exploring current mobilizations of the term free speech and their connections to existing practices and concepts of constitutionally protected speech and academic freedom. We will consider any essay on the topic of academic freedom, but a detailed call for papers with suggested areas of focus is at http://bit.ly/2eC5dPx.

Professor Johnny Williams was suspended from Trinity College in Connecticut last summer following a campaign of targeted harassment that included racist threats and threats to his family. Thanks to the support and work of his colleagues in his AAUP chapter, he was cleared in a formal review, with the president of Trinity writing Williams's "actions and words were protected by academic freedom and did not violate Trinity College policies."
