>>I suspect the latter.

Me, too. The key issue is the tenure process. It is impossible for a conservatives to conceal their political preferences long enough to obtain tenure and be safe from being released.

The tenure system must die or undergo some serious modification.

I agree. Its unacceptable and intolerable for educational institutions to be so unrepresentative of a society's political diversity that they end up corrupting its values. The tenure system is in need of a major overhaul. I no reason why tradition aside, Marxists and anti-American radicals need or deserve lifetime tenure subsidized by the taxpayers at our universities when the rest of us don't even enjoy the benefits of lifetime job security.

As with most things the left touches, the tenure system has been corrupted to become the opposite of what was intended. Tenure was supposed to give support to the free rein of ideas. Instead it has become the yoke of one theme - Communism. (or one of its aliases Socialism, Liberalism, Progressives, or whatever their latest reincarnation is)
