Should universities prioritize hiring tenured faculty over adjuncts in Geographical Science departments

You're framing this as a binary choice when the real question is whether universities should *afford* tenure at all. If adjuncts do identical work for a fraction of the cost, the burden shifts to you: prove tenure creates measurable value beyond job security. Better research output? Show the data. Institutional knowledge? Adjuncts accumulate that too. What you're actually arguing is that geographical science needs expensive permanence, but you haven't explained why. Budget constraints are real. So either tenure delivers something adjuncts cannot, or it's institutional bloat dressed up as academic principle. Which is it?
