And if I remember correctly, if you misrepresent your scholarly activities and that is what the decision to grant tenure is predicated on, that is a reason to void the tenure. As long as the university has documented EVERYTHING, they should be ok.

Oh yeah. I didn't mean to suggest that they were stuck with him forever. I was just trying to clarify something I expressed badly earlier when I said he hadn't really "earned" tenure. Well, he didn't really earn it, but since it was granted, the burden was still on the school to prove that it needed to be taken away.
