HMM: Law Schools Use ABA Standard 405(c)’s Tenure-Like Security Of Position To Discriminate Against Female Legal Writing Faculty.

I’m skeptical that this is really an issue, but it’s certainly not an issue at the University of Tennessee College of Law, where all our non-adjunct faculty are on the tenure track, including writing faculty. (And our writing program, which has students writing a lot of papers even in their first year, really works. When I was new, I had to do a lot of English-teacher work on student papers; now they’re all well-written.)
