Puddy Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Okay I'll be the first to admit, I don't know what the hell getting "tenure" means. I've heard it my whole life (many times from students in a negative way). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard it my whole life (many times from students in a negative way). Tenure means you can slack off and not work and get a nice retirement package. It also means that Wiegie can give his students BS now and not get fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also means that Wiegie can give his students BS now and not get fired. That's pretty much what Wikipedia said. Oh and is it transferrable (or is wiegie going to be living in Michigan forever).
