AAUP removes expose of indoctrination from its Website
One of the finest and welcome articles on America’s campus reality appeared on the website of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) in October of 2021. It was called “The Shadow Curriculum of Student Affairs,” and it called out the network of ideological workshops and seminars conducted nationwide on campuses.
The article was measured and, to my mind, much too temperate in its criticism of this clunky monstrosity called the “co-curriculum.” The so-called “co-curriculum” is run by would-be “college educators” and is designed to inculcate so-called social justice and various off-shoot extremist notions into student living and dining spaces 24-7 as part of what they call “milieu management.”
I’ve written extensively here on this fraudulent “co-curriculum,” in which fake faculty offer fake courses and even offer a fake transcript. Be clear–it has almost nothing to do with faculty or the actual course offerings of a university.
Student Affairs support staff have awarded themselves an “educator” role in their various workshops and, frankly, they and their programs should be rolled back. We’ll do that soon enough. But in the meantime, it’s worth inquiring why this important revelatory article was removed from the AAUP website. I’ve done just that and await a response from the AAUP.
