@emporiastate 7. Charles Koch criticized the institution of tenure since the 1970s. In a piece Koch wrote in 1971, he holds out the General Motors Institute as the ideal for higher education. One key feature of GMI, Koch said, was that there was no tenure https://t.co/mecxuZF6Go https://t.co/btoG8OPbn0 — PolitiTweet.org

6. The Koch influence @emporiastate runs deep. In 2020 the Charles Koch Foundation donated 313K to the university. Koch entities have donated at least $1 million to the school in recent years. The school houses the Koch Center for Leadership and Ethics https://t.co/mecxuZF6Go — PolitiTweet.org

8. In the US, tenure has long served as a safeguard for academic freedom. Tenure prevents professors from being fired for discussing controversial ideas. And it's the tenure system that insulates faculty from undue influence by university donors, administrators, and politicians. — PolitiTweet.org
