Seriously, my experience with tenured faculty while teaching at Univ of Colorado, Denver as Professor Honorarium (Latin for Nightschool Teacher) is that the tenured were what I call "arrogant without cause (AWC)". So you should do fine. I envy you as I suspect I'd enjoy professorhood full time but I don't have the patience to put up with a PhD program (and the accompanying "know everything about nothing" faculty) in CS. Good Luck. Oh yeah - where are you going to do your doc? The average hunter gatherer works 20 hours a week. The average farmer works 40 hours a week. The average programmer works 60 hours a week. What the hell are we thinking?

Plus, they're a lot closer than Boulder or Ft. Collins, at least coming from Littleton. Tom Sinclair "Subverting Young Minds Since 03/13/2000"

I did my undergrad at their rival NMT. Keep us posted The average hunter gatherer works 20 hours a week. The average farmer works 40 hours a week. The average programmer works 60 hours a week.
