Bob,
We (the Rider AAUP Chapter) will not be participating in the WCC SGA student forum with Rider's president. The AAUP executive committee did not think that was a good venue for our participation. This is not in any way a softening of our position in support of Westminster faculty. We fully support WCC fauclty's position that the Princeton campus is the best location for them to offer a quality education for their students. We just do not think a forum concerning a decision by president Dell'Omo to publicly discuss moving the WCC campus is appropriate for us. The decision to make the statement was president Dell'Omo's so he is the appropriate person to discuss that decision with the students. Additionally, the content of administration's study on moving WCC, or on the cost of running WCC is information which the Rider AAUP chapter does not have and we would not have the ability to comment on the validity of any such information.
We do look forward to participating in the Rider State of the University event you and the Save WCC Coalition are planning. I look forward to speaking with you about that event.
-- Art Taylor, President, Rider AAUP Chapter
2014 Gesture of Westminster Solidarity with Rider Faculty:
The following piano solo was recorded in 2014 around midnight at Bristol Chapel by Rob C-Dubs after he leafleted the WCC dormitories in support of a meeting with AAUP members at Westmininster in opposition to administration attempts to force a strike - the video appeared on the Rider Chapter of the AAUP website for a couple of weeks as a coalition of the AAUP, students and families was able to block the worse of what was being imposed by administration - a victory it was for quality of education at Rider and Westminster.
