I think the problem is not being solved by the existence of tenure. It's masking the problem. Shouldn't everyone be hired with the intention that they do research in their field? It's not like universities don't have the money to have you teach 4 classes a semester and give you teacher assistants. The profit margins have room for expenses like this. I think my big issue is that I'm on the brunt of what happens when tenure gets to run wild. I'd also love it if you could email me some information about your research, I'd like to understand what topics there are available for study in the humanities realm.
