The American Association of University Professors (AAUP) represents the shared-governance interests of all faculty, whether tenured, tenure-track or part-time. This form is meant to be used by faculty at Coastal Carolina University (CCU). It enables the AAUP-CCU chapter to monitor faculty concerns on our campus without compromising your privacy. No on-campus electronic systems or servers are used to store this information, though be advised that online services (such as Google) may log your IP once you click 'submit'. If you are concerned about having your privacy compromised by non-CCU campus servers, please launch a private browsing window on your Internet browser, use a public computer or employ VPN (virtual private network) software when completing and submitting this form.
The AAUP can help you locate helpful resources relating to faculty rights, shared governance and academic freedom. AAUP personnel can also offer advice, and even provide mediators and legal support in cases when faculty rights have been violated. Please share as much information as you feel comfortable, and do leave an email address (either personal or university) if you are looking for a response from an officer in the AAUP, AAUP-SC, or AAUP-CCU.
AAUP-CCU has one of the largest AAUP memberships in the state of South Carolina. If you are interested in learning about the AAUP, or if you wish to join our membership, please visit the AAUP-CCU website (
