I'd venture to say ANY academic professional. Those without faculty status are welcome to join as associate members.
Many academic librarians are not and as noted in a recent post, the AAUP has historically upheld our need for Academic Freedom.
We need all of us in the fight to #SaveHigherEd.

The @aaup.org beat Marco Rubio in court, with a Reagan-appointed judge ruling that ideological deportations obviously violate the first amendment.
These cases cost money. And we need millions of people moving together to make them stick. If you're faculty in the US, join AAUP and join the fight.

Joining the AAUP says that you’re concerned about academic freedom, and about the way that basic freedom protects your teaching and research. Join today.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s NIH funding freeze halts grad student/postdoc acceptances, derailing research. This isn’t just about politics—it’s an assault on science, innovation, and the future of higher ed. We must defend academia from these reckless attacks. #SaveHigherEd www.statnews.com/2025/02/19/t...
Graduate student admissions paused and cut back as universities react to Trump orders on research

"No one is more important than anyone else."
Darn those typos, but it's very much true.
Faculty and staff do different things, but we need *all* of us in the University community, especially in the times we're facing in #HigherEd. Darn the Silos. Darn the traditional "divide." #SaveHigherEd

I'm going to take the words of my colleague on faculty-staff similarities and the fabled divide w/me.

Trumps attacks on Harvard won’t stop there. He’ll try to spread this to all higher ed organizations out of fear of intelligence. This is what stupid people do.
Higher ed is a basic reason the US leads the world- at least it used to until Trump took office.

Call it what it is:
🧨 An extinction-level event for college access
💰 A gift to lenders and the wealthy
📚 A direct assault on education, democracy, and economic mobility

Trump’s team isn’t hiding their intent.
🗣️ Christopher Rufo: “Put the university sector into a state of existential terror.”
They want to reengineer society by pricing working families out of education entirely.

Recalling, for no particular reason, that between my middle school and high school history classes, discussion of “Dark Ages” had become about “The Age of Faith.” Had nothing to do with the right wing takeover of our school board, I’m sure.

As a former student affairs professional, this is infuriating and goes against everything I was taught and know about what higher education should be. #fuckracists #savehighered
The headline doesn't do the article justice.
Trump's admin is arguing that anything like Black Student Associations, Black History Month events, programs to retain minorities, etc are illegal and worthy of defunding the school.
