Academic Freedom and Tenure: Muhlenberg College (Pennsylvania)
American Association of University Professors
This report concerns the actions taken against Dr. Maura Finkelstein by the administration of Muhlenberg College, namely her termination without cause following allegations of anti-Zionism and discrimination based on her social media presence. The committee found that the Muhlenberg administration wrongly utilized the college's equal opportunity and nondiscrimination policy and violated Professor Finkelstein's right to academic due process, and that the existing policies do not adequately protect academic freedom or due process according to AAUP standards. [The text of this report was written in the first instance by the members of the committee of inquiry.]
