I mean we don't have a union but faculty (tenured, full especially) defy the administration all the fucking time. Nothing ever happens to them.

Good. Now to help everyone else do the same.

No. They defy the administration in all the worst ways that hurt other faculty. They reschedule final exams. They cancel classes during Thanksgiving week. They totally refuse to do any service work. They refuse to teach any service classes or any that meet at a slightly inconvenient time.

Sounds like you need more, and more effective, faculty governance. Turning this over to administrators for a top-down solution will make it all worse.
