AAUP takes stand against Landmark

"The Landmark Foundation’s actions and claims as regards labor education are a threat to academic freedom and to academic institutions and professionals fulfilling their professional responsibilities," reads the statement. 

In the last few years the Landmark has made complaints in regard to labor education centers in at least eleven public universities and colleges, including Florida International University, Indiana University, UCLA, UC Berkeley, the Universities of Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts-Amherst, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, and The Evergreen State College. While most colleges and universities have refused to comply with Landmark's demands, the administration at Evergreen conducted a review of their labor center's work which raised questions that mirrored Landmark's claims.
