UIUC philosophy department votes no confidence in Chancellor Wise and Board of Trustees

The statement: 

Whereas the recent words and actions of Chancellor Phyllis Wise, President Robert Easter, and the Board of Trustees in connection with the revocation of an offer of employment to Dr. Steven Salaita betray a culpable disregard not only for academic freedom and free speech generally but also for the principles of shared governance and established protocols for hiring, tenure, and promotion, the faculty of the Department of Philosophy at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign declares its lack of confidence in the leadership of the current Chancellor, President, and Board of Trustees.

Has the Am Phil Association said anything about this?

I believe in paying dues but the whole organization seems to be about setting up large audiences for famous-within philosophers.
