The Ohio Conference of the AAUP (American Association of University Professors), in collaboration with coalition partners, is seeking Ohio faculty (NTT, TTT, and everyone who researches and teachers at Ohio universities) who want to speak out against SB 83. We definitely need people to
testify against SB 83 in the Ohio Statehouse. You can also indicate whether you are willing to share your knowledge and experience with the media, or at public events like panels, teach-ins, or rallies.
Filling out this form is helpful for our planning, and we will be in touch to answer any questions, but you must submit your own testimony.
The opposition hearing will be Wednesday, April 19, at 4:00 pm in the South Hearing Room; written-only and in-person testimony must be submitted by Tuesday, April 18, 4:00 pm, to Jake.Dowling@ohiosenate.gov and Cirino@ohiosenate.gov along with a witness slip. Please note: this is a form is specifically for identifying Ohio faculty who want to speak out. Go your local AAUP chapter or to
Honesty for Ohio Education to get on a general information list as well.
