Butz

April 15, 2006

Today I’m ashamed to live in the state of Illinois, home of the private school Northwestern University. Professor Arthur R. Butz, a complete waste of skin, in recent interviews with the Iranian press, Butz “congratulated” the Iranian president and his views on the Holocaust. Views that say the Holocaust NEVER HAPPENED!

What a nut case!

Butz teaches at one of the highest regarded academic university’s in the US. Northwestern refuses to remove the professor on the basis of free speech and tenure.

This is just one example of why universities should do away with tenure. Since when does accountability not matter once you’ve served enough time? When’s the last time our tenured university professors have done anything significant with their tenured status to advance society?

    I never understood the basis of Tenure. Why would anyone be allowed employment just because they stood the test of time? A person should be allowed to stay in their chosen profession because they are still qualified to meet the demands of the job and do not bring shame upon the institution they represent. Tenure needs to go.
