“the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) detailed egregious violations of ‘shared governance’ at eight institutions of higher #education. These included the termination of tenured as well as nontenured appointments, the suspension of faculty handbooks, the elimination of entire academic programs, the abolition of established bodies of governance, the invocation of force-majeure clauses to nullify collective bargaining agreements, and more.
