The executive committee of KU's AAUP chapter surveyed the chapter's 120 members before joining the race to represent the proposed faculty union.
Hohn said 60 percent of the respondents said faculty should be involved in collective bargaining, and 85 percent said they represent the organization if one were formed.
"That prompted us to take a stand," he said.
Hohn said he thought that if an election were held today, KU's faculty would choose the "no representation" option.
When the election is held, the "no

Hohn said because higher education faculty unions were more prevalent on the East and West Coasts than in the Midwest, and because Kansas was a major union issue at KU was attracting attention elsewhere in the Midwest.
"But even if 'no representation is chosen, I think the process is useful."
representation" option automatically will be added to the ballot along with the names of any groups that represent such matrices, or 30 percent of the faculty.
“A lot of people are watching with interest what goes on here,” he said.

Meet the No.1 college advertising rep in the country:
Grant Shaffer
More than 60 universities gathered in Washington D.C. to recognize the best in the business. More than 60 competed for creative advertising, management and sales awards. One student was awarded for sales excellence. Only one. Grant Shaffer.
From Grant's point of view, it was a tremendous honor. For those of us at the Kansan, it was just plain exciting. He's given us three semesters of hard work, enthusiasm and success. He's developed creative sales strategies that have opened up new markets and brought a lot of new advertisers to your newspaper.
Perhaps the best part of Grant winning the award is that besides everything else, he's one of the nicest guys you'd ever want to work with.
Congratulations, Grant. Through your award you've brought us tons of pride and miles of smiles.
And thanks. Through your three semesters of work here at the Kansan we've brought us a bunch of great ads.
You're reading the No.1 college newspaper.
Your newspaper was recognized as No. 1 in the business, too. The University Daily Kansan received the highest award granted by the College Newspaper Business Advertising Managers, a national organization with more than 80 campus newspaper members.
It's called the Trendsetter and it's presented to the newspaper that's setting the pace for the industry.
