Tenure is the next battleground of the culture war.
Tenure rates at US universities have been declining (24% in 2021from 39% in 1987), which the GOP aims to speed up.
"The existence of tenure makes the system really slow to change, and maybe that’s even an additional rationale for having it, which is we don’t want these institutions changing on the whims of local leaders. We want these institutions and faculty targeting truth-finding."
