Tenure Seen as Mistake in Education Policy
Denver chancellor Mauree B. Mitchell warned at the Education Commission of the States session that tenure has created an explosion of power among faculty at American universities. He said tenure often protects mediocrity and stultifies students while arguing academic freedom should be measured by university impact rather than tenure. He urged massive reforms to university structures and emergency fixes for early college years.
