| Summary: | The Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) has recently been challenging a growing roster of member universities of the Christian Higher Education Canada, Inc. (CHEC) that their institutional confessional statements of faith violate the CAUT policy on academic freedom, which CAUT regards as essential to what it means to be a university in Canada. In preparation for the 2010 CHEC Annual General Meeting discussion of this matter, CHEC invited faculty at CHEC schools who had also taught at public universities to compare their experiences of academic freedom at both public and Christian universities. This qualitative study provides a summary of those reported perceptions. |
