To be a Full Professor at Harvard at the age of 39 is extraordinary?

The latest development meant ,
full professor Li is granted "tenure" at a university like Harvard, it means they have been awarded permanent employment status.
This status provides the professor Li with job security and academic freedom.
Tenure is typically granted after a probationary period during which the professor's teaching, research, and service contributions are evaluated by their peers and university administrators.
Once granted, tenure protects professors from arbitrary dismissal and allows them the freedom to pursue their research and teaching interests without fear of reprisal.
It's a significant milestone in an academic career, indicating a high level of accomplishment and recognition within the academic community.
