A professor from NYU just moved into my Memphis neighborhood. He's teaching remotely. He couldn't pass on the low taxes and property values. He sub-let his apartment.

He's toxic with leftistism.

Tenure is the most destructive policy ever implemented in education.

Look at what the tuition you pay for gets you. Here are some examples:

* Harvard offers “Taylor Swift” courses ,

* Princeton teaches you about “Getting Dressed” in the morning,

* At Emerson College, you can learn about “Deconstructing TV’s Buffy” for real college credits, all while the taxpayer satisfies the terms of your loan—even Jeff Bezos’s Washington Post was forced to report on the “alarming decline” in education.

De Santis should have held his fire and waited until the end of Trumps second term.

“Many are giving up coveted tenured positions and blaming their departures on Governor DeSantis and his effort to reshape the higher education system to fit his conservative principles.”

Win/win/win. Why didn't Republicans think of this fifty years ago?

Some probably did but didn't have the courage to act. And today some RINO’s don't have the good sense to follow Gov. DeSantis’ lead.

with college authorities struggling to attract replacements, and the state’s academics look as far as Canada for new opportunities.

That's it, recruit from Canada!

The University of Florida said that its turnover rate is not unusual and remains well below the 10.57 percent national average. Hiring, it said, has also outpaced departures.

No conflicting information in this article!

Excellent! Get those filthy commies the eff OUT of my beloved alma mater. 1/4 is a good start. Let’s be honest though. Probably about 90% of them are hardcore Leftists. We need a massive purge of the faculty just like practically every other university in the US.

Students who want to actually learn something are going the other direction.

Should be good news for Florida. Presumably, the resulting vacancies can be filled with competent traditional-minded or conservative replacements. The chances for a decent education in Florida appear to be rising.

There are only so many jobs in academia in a state. It’s going to get tough out there since tenure will lock out new applicants for quite a while. DeSantis and the legislature reformed tenure in Florida by requiring that new tenured professors have to undergo a review every 5 years in order to keep their status.
