UNO-AAUP Membership Application
Dues include several memberships: 1) the UNO-AAUP, 2) the national AAUP, 3) the Nebraska State Conference of the AAUP, and 4) the American Federation of Teachers. You will receive a subscription to the monthly magazine Academe with your membership in addition to enjoying all the rights and privileges (including voting and holding elected office) that are thereby conferred.
During the first academic year of your eligibility, dues are just $10 per month! Thereafter, dues are automatically renewed and calculated at 0.75% (.0075) of your base salary (not to exceed $750). Dues will be collected confidentially through a monthly payroll deduction.
Get Help
The UNO-AAUP negotiates on behalf of all full-time faculty and represents faculty in bargaining agreement disputes. We also help faculty navigate their rights under the agreement.
If you think your rights under the bargaining agreement have been violated, contact the UNO-AAUP Grievance Officer. We can often tell you immediately if a problem rises to the level of a grievance and/or strategize with you about the best course of action to deal with the problem. Common areas of concern that relate to the bargaining agreement include reappointment, promotion, and tenure; annual review; and workload.
