Universities Feeling the Squeeze

Speaking of institutions undergoing changes, a new report finds that “nearly half of colleges and universities that responded expected enrollment declines for full-time students, and a third of the schools expected tuition revenue to decline or to grow at less than the rate of inflation.”

Unlearn the Propaganda!

    My college UCM just saw record enrollment last year and tuition still rises at 5 times the rate of inflation. I don’t think those robbers are feeling any squeezes at all.

    I’m sure there are other problems as well, but it seems to me that the biggest problem at universities right now is the explosion of the number of administrators. This seems to be where the money is going, professors sure don’t make that much. What’s more these administrators seem to exist solely for the purpose of disrupting the community of ideas that the students and faculty at a university should create. Obviously, the transformation of the university into an HR sorting tool has contributed to this “dumbing down” of college, but the role of swarms of administrators isn’t adequately appreciated.
