Tenure has kept jerks like Ward Churchill around well beyond when they should have been thrown out the door. Also once tenure is achieved, these profs tend to take the RAAF (Retired As Active Faculty) program and many become useless drones.
I say eliminate tenure.
I say eliminate the universities.
“dateline Washington, DC. Members of the Modern Language Association, having been kicked out of various military basic training programs, having failed to receive any private industry responses to their one line resumes due to grammer and spelling errors, have settled into the only available positions now open to them by weaseling their way into political indoctrination positions as instructors and professors at colleges and universities where they now recieve huge salaries via government grants. These grants often include subsidies for payment of utility bills, household rent, car insurance and a way of padding their resumes, making them more attractive to various government agencies who are always searching for job applicants who have demonstrated their profound lack of competence in all other fields of endevour.” sarc.
