Amen to that, or at least limit tenure.

If you limit tenure the professors will become as conformist as journalists are. Better is to suffer the wrong speech (including leftist) than to abolish it altogether. The tenure is in place for a good reason and it is one of the key stones protecting the freedom. This institution predates United States and derives from Europe. Do not tinker with it .

I strogly disagree, our education system is gone to the dogs. They are teaching our children to be mindless sheep who can't think. Then we have college professors that are biased and hateful, I know I was in Vietnam. College professors were and still are famous for inciting radical ideals instead of just teaching. They should not be allowed a public forum (a closed classroom) to vent their own personal agenda's.
