Going to be tough for UT, which regularly hires people who are among the best in the world, and was essentially at the Berkeley/UCLA/UMich level of public university. They will still be able to hire, of course, but they won't be able to get Nobel Prize-level people without offering tenure.

They will be gainfully employed as long as they want to be. If they are looking for a delayed retirement, they can just move to a tenured spot when they reach a certain age.
- squokko 3y agoI'm talking about the people who seem like they could win a Nobel Prize someday when they're just finishing their PhD, not the people who already have one.
