SB 18 by Creighton: Eliminating Tenure at General Academic Institutions
PRO-TAXPAYER POSITION
Support
House Record Vote: 1978
SB 18 seeks to not allow institutions of higher education to grant tenure or any type of permanent employment status starting on September 1, 2023. Tenure is a policy that works against free enterprise and makes it exceptionally hard to hold professors accountable, especially since they get paid with tax dollars. Ending lifetime contracts is pro-taxpayer and encourages both competition and accountability. For these reasons, TFR supports SB 18.
