Geology/Physics professor at UW-Stout.
Ahh, okay well you should know that the politics with the tenure programs tend to be a bit brutal in the UW system. I'm a student at UWWC and work in the IT department there, so I tend to work a bit closer with the professors on campus than the other students. The consistent seems that if you do anything that gets the students approval while in the tenure process then the committee tries to get you booted out.
Fortunately, most of the time the hearings get overturned when they realize that the professors aren't doing anything wrong, though. For example, one of the Biology professors in the that made it through the whole process got complaints by his third year that he wasn't publishing enough scholar material but was able to get that hearing overturned when he showed up with a book case worth of books he had written chapters in.
However, sometimes decisions can get too far in the process though. An English professor over at the college, for example, is going through the process currently. He also was told that he wasn't publishing enough scholar material. He was able to get the English tenure committee's decision appealed on the third try, though, when the appeal was performed by the top brass in every other field. During the hearing, the English committee claimed the professor wasn't publishing enough, that they didn't have a requirement or expectation of how much they expected to be published, if they did have a requirement or expectation they wouldn't feel obligated to share that information with the professor, and that the professor wasn't fulling their expected requirements. The Math and Science fields immediately picked up on this and overturned the decision, giving the professor another year to publish more. However, the English committee is still harassing the professor and it's not looking good for him currently.
This isn't the experience that every professor has had with the tenure programs, and if you make it through you'll have a high paying job for life. However, expect to be treated like Eliza Doolittle only with out the added satisfaction of telling off professor Higgins in the end and opening a flower shop. I hope that helps.
