Meeting and Dialogue with Senior Research Officers

On September 9, 2022, Drs. Steven Pei and Jeremy Wu, Co-Organizers of APA Justice, joined a virtual meeting with Senior Research Officers at the Association of American Universities (AAU).  The meeting was moderated by Roger Wakimoto, Vice Chancellor for Research, UCLA.  It included a 10-minute presentation by Steven and Jeremy on "Academic Freedom and Engaging Faculty on Campus -  The Asian American Perspective" and a package of backgrounds and references, followed by questions and answers, and robust and productive discussions. 

The meeting continues our engagement and collaboration with AAU after Toby Smith, Vice President for Science Policy & Global Affairs, spoke at the APA Justice monthly meeting on June 6, 2022.  

Founded in 1900, AAU is composed of America’s leading research universities which collectively help shape policy for higher education, science, and innovation; promote best practices in undergraduate and graduate education; and strengthen the contributions of leading research universities to American society. 

At the conclusion of our brief presentation, we suggested four wishes from the Asian American faculty perspective:


  1. Engage faculty in the development and implementation of NSPM-33 and similar policies on campus to make sure clear instruction, sufficient support, and proper training are provided to faculty, researchers, and administrative staff.
  2. “Establish (an independent or joint with faculty senate) committee (preferably led by a Chinese American faculty) to evaluate, define and protect the rights, privileges, and responsibilities of faculty and administration in cases involving the investigation of faculty by outside agencies” - a resolution passed by the faculty senate of a founding member of AAU
  3. Offer and publicize first response followed by independent legal assistance.  Consider legal insurance in the long term. 
  4. Help faculty, staffs, and students to resolve visa, border entry, and related issues.​ ​
