Title: Think tenure protects you? With wealthy donors and less public funding, think again Author: Denise Cummings
*Source*: PBS NewsHour
*Date:* Oct. 1, 2014
*Summary: T*enure isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, argues Denise Cummins. The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where Cummins used to teach as an adjunct, recently rescinded a job offer made to professor Steven Salaita — even though he had tenure — because his tweets were “uncivil.” Cummins weighs in on the changing economics of higher ed, and what that means for academic freedom.
