Serious question: If the whole point of tenure, historically, was to protect professors who express controversial views, why do so few tenured professors today express controversial views? What are some specific reasons? (I'm working on an article about this.)

Read all the pieces I wrote for Quillette on free speech and get back to me if you have a more specific query.
