The more time I spend researching this type of garbage, the more convinced I am that the academy generates reactionary ideology, no matter the idealism that young scholars start out with. Both Engerman and Genovese started out as new leftists. What turned them into such pigs? Tenure? McLaren writes "No tenure, no peace." Maybe the slogan should be "No tenure, no intellectual treason."

How's this -- "no tenure & no merit pay" for professors? Or else, as Michael Hoover says, tenure for every worker!
