Our Mission

We are the Faculty Alliance of Miami (FAM, AAUP-AFT Local 375). Through teaching, research, and community involvement, we generate the knowledge and dialogue that a democratic society requires from a public university. Every day, across ranks and campuses, Miami’s teacher-scholars foster student success and academic excellence. Through organizing, as Miami’s faculty and librarians union, we resolve to protect this mission and the public good it has created.

​Through collective bargaining, we have the power to:

  • ​Prioritize and protect the Teacher-Scholar model that drives Miami’s excellence in teaching and research
  • ​Ensure Miami working conditions, compensation, and learning conditions reflect the Love and Honor that all students and faculty deserve, regardless of their identity, title, or rank
  • Fulfill the promise of shared governance, administrative transparency, and due process
  • ​Uphold & model principles of academic freedom.
