Hegseth halts tenure appointments for civilian faculty at military academies

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered a halt to tenure appointments for civilian faculty at US military academies, according to Military Times. The move affects professors at institutions such as West Point, Annapolis and the Air Force Academy, and it is already drawing scrutiny over academic independence and how the Pentagon manages its civilian workforce.

Why now: The Pentagon's intervention in academic tenure at service academies is an unusual and politically charged step.
