Good tidings
of great joy . . .
Try this on for size, from the Epoch Times newspaper:
“At a growing number of public higher education institutions across the nation, professors are no longer guaranteed a job for life.”
Yes, brothers and sisters, the Deadbeat Express has pulled into the station, and is now boarding teachers wearing corduroy jackets with elbow patches. If a goof in a corduroy jacket happens to be smoking a pipe, send him to the back of the car.
This is a positive step in repairing the nation’s education (failed) system. And in Arkansas, of all places, tenure can be yanked from unworthy teachers who promote DEI and other nation-killing policies. Whoa! There will be vacancies.
I cannot abide stupid people, but neither can I abide sanctimonious school teachers. Who thought up the tenure idea, anyway? Find that person’s grave, and spit on it. Guaranteed jobs ensure sloth and apathy, and any gullible parent paying a college fifty-grand or more per year for hisorher kid should embrace that truth.
The world of academia is fraught with bad ideas and bad teachers. Lucky for the country, a long overdue cleanup is underway. “Tenure reform measures have been passed by state legislatures or higher education boards in seven states so far, and proposals are moving through the system in six others.”
All good things must end. So must the bad. Tell it to uber-liberal, white, female governor of Arizona, Katie Hobbs, the mentally hobbled. The pols in her state passed a tenure reform law, and she vetoed it. Shocked? Yeah, me neither.
Tenure reform is also opposed by — ready for this? — the union of the American Association of University Professors. What? Really? No way . . .
Yes, way. The “union” said, of Oklahoma’s reform measures, that they are — here we go — “deeply troubling.” I bet they do. Going further, the “union” said, “The removal of these protections (tenure) will directly undermine the educational quality, weaken faculty recruitment and retention, and deprive students of learning environments grounded in intellectual rigor and open inquiry.”
I close here with one final comment on that last statement: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
