Tenure ranks right
down there with federal judges being appointed for life.
C;mon guys, let's not be hypocritical. You're defending BOR at the same time you're denying her her 1A rights.
Tenure exists to protect the individual from the administration, just like the BOR. A proven research professor earns tenure, and can then express their opinions without fear of retribution just because the powers that be disagree.
We, private citizens, are disagreeing with her, which is OUR 1st Amendment right; we aren't denying her anything in the least. Just sayin'.
