Tenure is pretty much the stupidest thing in the world. Any rule or concept that can result in an incredibly senile old man being absolutely impossible to fire and still allowed to teach children is something I really don't think we should be keeping around. Actually, you can take it even further than that. I've seen teachers that are downright psychotic or abusive, but you can't get rid of the evil bastards because of this stupid, stupid idea, and I'm getting pretty sick of it.
It also makes it almost impossible for new teachers to actually get jobs, because until the aforementioned senile old man finally freaking dies already, his position is filled, and there's nothing you can do about it.
And you know what? For all the massive, massive amounts of bitching the media does about pedophilia, teachers who have a history of that sort of dsigusting crap can GET REHIRED.WHAT. THE. PISS?
