SB 18 by Creighton: Eliminating Tenure at General Academic Institutions

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.
