Like professors with job security (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tenured

(Other definitions for tenured that I've seen before include "with a job for life?" , "Unlikely to be removed from office" , "having secure job" , "Holding a permanent post" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
