The University of North Florida (UNF) administration and the United Faculty of Florida (UFF) Union are facing an impasse as the organizations aren’t able to agree on proposed tenure changes as a result of a new state law requiring post-tenure review.
Soon, tenured professors like Tobias Huning, who is also the president of UFF, may be required to undergo post-tenure reviews every five years.“We don’t think it is something necessary. We don’t think that it is an appropriate tool to evaluate us,” Huning said.
Those who do not meet expectations are defined as those who fall below the normal range of their department, and they can be fired if they don’t improve after a year.
