The idea tenured professors are underworked and overpaid and the university doesn’t really need them seems potentially a really easy sell to me. Getting rid of those salaries will save a lot of money.

“Income from grants written by professors is the single largest contribution to the Stanford University budget (the second largest is endowment income, and student tuition is a distant third).”
