Our mission is to promote and defend quality public higher education by working together to uphold the University of Oregon’s academic and research priorities. We believe in democracy, fairness, transparency, academic excellence, diversity, access to education, and economic opportunity. We aim to enhance the quality of faculty work life and student education by negotiating our terms and conditions of employment.
At United Academics of the University of Oregon, we are committed to defending the principles of quality public higher education, especially in the face of current threats to protections that serve real people. Our mission is rooted in ensuring that access to education and economic opportunity remain available to all. As the current national administration works to dismantle critical protections, we stand firm in our dedication to not only enhancing the quality of faculty work life but also safeguarding student education. Together, we will resist these destructive forces and continue advocating for an education system that serves everyone with dignity and respect.
