Master Black Belt
We do not allow students to determine teacher tenure and pay raises in public or private schools, why would the martial arts be any different?
Because the martial arts are driven by students who have the freedom to choose which instructor(s) they follow. Elementary and secondary school students are more or less stuck with a limited range of options; college students less so.
If student input played a role the racket that is the modern tenure system might not be such a factor.
