A few comments (if memory serves from my earlier reading of this thread) the faculty job market is a pyramid. With the number of people exiting the pyramid being very high due to the few positions at the top. Is there another structure that would encourage a less severe forced exodus of people while maintaining their jobs? As an aside this pyramid seems to me to function a lot like the government with the leader/president at the top. Only the president has limited tenure. Should professors with tenure have a term limit too?
