Endorse the CAFT
All professors, instructors, and administrators affiliated with an institution of higher learning are invited to endorse The Commitment to Academic Freedom and Tolerance (CAFT) as a sign of support for its principles. In addition, professional organizations composed primarily of such individuals, as well as organizations devoted to higher education affairs, are also welcome to endorse the CAFT.
There are two options for endorsing the CAFT:
Option 1: Sign the CAFT (Preferred)
Using a university email account, send an email to thecaft@zohomail.com including the following:
“I, (Name Here), would like to be listed as a signatory of the CAFT.”
As you would like them to appear on the CAFT website, your:
Name
Position
Department or unit of employment
University or educational institution
To sign the CAFT as an organization, please have someone with sufficient authority to speak for your organization send an email to thecaft@zohomail.com including the following:
“(Name of Organization) would like be listed as a signatory to the CAFT.”
Please make sure that the name and position of the person sending the email are clear.
Option 2: Endorse the CAFT Anonymously
You also have the option of endorsing the CAFT anonymously. Anonymous endorsements will be listed separately from the main list of signatories. We will list only the number of anonymous endorsements until 20 have been received. After that point, we will also list the fields and institutions from which the endorsements come. (To protect anonymity, the fields and institutions will be listed separately. No one will be able to tell, for example, that the musicology professor who endorsed the CAFT also came from a particular university).
To endorse the CAFT anonymously, please use a university email account and send an email to thecaft@zohomail.com including the following:
“I wish to endorse the CAFT anonymously.”
Your type of position (professor, instructor, or administrator)
If you are a professor or instructor, your discipline
Your university or educational institution
Your email address and any other information that could be used to identify you will not be shared with anyone.
