Reader crowdsourcing project to fight American Studies Assoc anti-Israel boycott

Reader crowdsourcing project to fight American Studies Assoc anti-Israel boycott

Reader-created contact list and call to action.

I have received a surprisingly large number of emails of support from people outraged at the anti-Israel academic boycott passed by the American Studies Association.  Almost all of those emails come from new readers.

The question many of them ask is what they can do to help me not only in the challenge to ASA’s tax-exempt status, but also to oppose the boycott.

Readers can take action themselves by contacting University Presidents and Trustees for those 83 universities who are Institutional Members of the ASA, as well as the head of the university sytem for state institutions.

Institutional Membership lends the good name of the university to a boycott that is anti-academic freedom and that subjects visiting Israeli scholars and faculty who hold joint appointments to discrimination on the basis of national origin.  Those memberships also likely reflect that university funds are used to support faculty participation in ASA events, ASA’s main source of revenue.

I will be writing today to the President of Cornell University, whose Cornell-Technion campus being built in New York City will be subject to the boycott and whose visiting Israeli scholars and joint appointees will be subject to discrimination by ASA on the basis of national origin.

I also think it is appropriate to contact Senators, Congressmen, and Governors (for state university systems who maintain an Institutional Membership) since taxpayer money is used to subsidize participation in ASA events.

It would be nice to have a single contact list, right? That’s where you can help me.

We don’t have the staff here or the resources to devote to pulling together the contact information for the 83 Institutional Members of ASA.

So if you want to help, please post in the comments the contact information (full name, title, address, e-mail address) for the University President, Chair of the Board of Trustees, University System President (if applicable), and politicians in states whose state universities are members (Governor, Congressman for the District, Senators).

NOTE ADDED – where there is no direct email for the President of a University, provide the email for the Chief Communications Officer and Assistant to the President.

You can check the comments to get the information, and we also will pull the information from the comments into a single list.

I can’t predict the likelihood of success.  Already Penn State Harrisburg has announced its intention to withdraw membership, although it is unclear if funding still will be provided to attend ASA events.

Mark Rice, Professor and Chair of the Department of American Studies, St. John Fisher College, Rochester, New York, thinks more will follow:

It will be interesting to see what the ASA institutional membership roll looks like at this time next year. It will take about that long to see which institutions may decide to withdraw from the association (and which others, if any, may decide to join).

Indeed, I’ve already heard from folks who say that they plan to drop their institutional membership because of the boycott vote. It’s too soon to say that an exodus has begun, but there is some real discontent out there.

It will happen only if good people speak up against this travesty.

UPDATE/NOTE 12-25-2013Many schools have responded, please check the List of Universities rejecting academic boycott of Israel. Focus the effort on those which have not yet made a statement.

Also, StandWithUs has a resource page with sample letters and addresses.

For Maryland and UMBC – here is what I found:

“Jay A. Perman, MD, was appointed president of the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) effective July 1, 2010….”
– the whole leadership list is here. No specific contact information is on the site that I can find thus far, although these contacts may be of some help. The general university contact info. is at the bottom of these pages.

The Board of Trustees information is here , which includes the Chair and other contacts.

The governor of Maryland is Gov. Martin O’Malley; here is the page to contact him via email. Direct contact by letter would use the address at the bottom of the page.

US Senators are Barbara Mikulski and Ben Cardin.

According to this page, it appears that the House representative for the Baltimore area is A. Dutch Ruppersberger.

Hope this is just one of MANY comments that will get you the information you need!

I see that an enterprising and dedicated attorney is advertising pro bono services to New York’s ASA members because “ASA’s recent actions may be subject to a court challenge by individual members of the organization.” Your search engine will take you to the web-sites that carry his contact information.

Might be nice for LI to email a letter to each ASA member university president.

Take that list of all member universities and put a placeholder under each name for their response. Their justification for action/inaction will be on public record.

University presidents who refuse to respond should then have their phones rung off the hook by LI readers.

For world peace, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Islam ought to be destroyed.

Since I live in Oregon, I decided to check with the president of Willamette University about this. He responded very quickly in a friendly and open manner, and said that he had checked into this and that WU was not an “institutional member” of the ASA.

I suspect that the listing of WU is bogus on the part of the ASA, and I suggest that any further communication with WU about this would require more specific information about how WU came to be on the ASA’s list.

from Stephen Thorsett
Before diving into the substance of your concerns, let me first report that I don’t think we are an “institutional member” of this organization in any real sense. I have asked our financial folks, who say that we last reimbursed a faculty member for an individual membership in 2005. (We’ve only checked credit card reimbursements back to 2011.) We do have a faculty member serving on the board of an encyclopedia project at JHU Press that is sponsored by ASA, but so far I’ve turned up no other relationships. Your email was surprising to me, since as an institution we don’t, as a general practice, join external scholarly disciplinary associations, except in certain partnership situations (e.g., groups like the Organization for Tropical Studies, with its support of collaborative research in remote locations, come to mind). Most likely our library subscribes to their journal(s); perhaps that is the source of the confusion?

Obviously Willamette does not intend to monitor or restrict faculty in their personal memberships or their own activities and voting records within external scholarly organizations. Nor do we intend to restrict student or faculty activities in any particular regions of the world (except through our policy of relying on the travel advice of the State Department). We are glad to have had strong collaborations with academics in Israel in the past, and we will continue to do so in the future. Despite your concerns about American academics “policing” compliance with a boycott, I have never received any request from any faculty member here (or at my previous institutions) asking me to support a boycott of Israel, nor would I be receptive to such a request. My own personal views on boycotts and more generally on the inappropriateness of groups of faculty telling other groups of faculty what or how or where they should or shouldn’t be allowed to teach or research are well known.
I’ve done more investigating. It appears that the institutional dues are included with the journal subscription, so this seems to be a publication acquisition decision, made at the faculty level, not a question of institutional endorsement. I don’t plan to get involved in matters of selection of journals and other library materials.

Best wishes,
Steve

    William A. Jacobson in reply to alyssatkaplan. | December 19, 2013 at 10:48 pm

    He is wrong, and I have written to him. Institutional Memberhip is not needed to get the publications. Individual Members get them for free, and they can be ordered for the library from the printer.

    William A. Jacobson in reply to alyssatkaplan. | December 20, 2013 at 1:50 pm

    Confirmed with him that all they have is a subscription via Johns Hopkins Press, no knowledge of membership in ASA.
