Faculty handbooks , 1966, 1995

The records of the American Association of University Professors OU Chapter document the life of the chapter and the issues they have faced since their creation. The collection is useful to study the emergence and development of unions and collective bargaining in public universities in Michigan in the 1970s. The collection is organized in three series: Administrative Files, Subject Files, and Contracts. The Administrative Files contains constitutions and bylaws as well as Executive Committee meeting minutes, memos, and newsletters for the 1960-2013 period. Subject Files include files on specific issues, such as the faculty status of librarians or the black faculty statement of 1973, as well as miscellaneous documents, memorabilia and reports issued or used by the OU AAUP chapter. The Contracts series includes all the contracts signed by Oakland University and its AAUP chapter from 1971 through 2015 and selected benefits summaries.
