Does Fair Share result in a reduction of Akron-AAUP membership dues?
Only Akron-AAUP chapter members can authorize a change in membership dues. Dues for every Akron-AAUP member include a flat amount going to the state and national AAUP, with the remainder being for local dues. Therefore, a certain level of dues is required to pay those fees and have money left to provide services to members. Given the costs to date in reaching the contract, and the likely expenses in implementing a new contract, Akron-AAUP members will have to weigh these costs against dues reductions.
