Corinna Mullin is one of the “fired four” adjunct faculty and labor organizer fired without cause or explanation from the City College of New York. Corinna was arrested during her college’s encampment, maligned at one of the congressional hearings on antisemitism and was the target of right-wing attacks and a doxxing campaign from Betar and Canary Mission.

“Faculty on the Front Lines” is a series documenting the stories of AAUP members. While some participants have shared their experiences with the press, this project aims to provide additional context for their individual narratives. The goal is to draw attention to partisan interference and violations of academic freedom by giving affected individuals a chance to tell their own stories in their own voices. These stories are a small sample of a disturbing trend in higher education. Colleges and universities are increasingly taking alarming measures to silence educators who speak out on issues of social justice, often targeting them, in part, for the scholarship that made them desirable hires. Contingent faculty have been denied renewal without cause, and faculty have been fired for their speech. This is the type of academic freedom and freedom of expression that the AAUP exists to defend; however, the views expressed in these videos are of the individual featured, not of the AAUP or its locals.
