So where is all the tuition money going?
The full time employee’s pensions.
We have liberal professors railing against “income inequality”. How about these liberal professors apply the proposed rules to their profession?
Most full time college professors teach only a few courses a year. This goes back 50 years. When I went to a small liberal arts college 1965-1969, the department head taught a class per semester, the other professors taught maximum of three courses per semester. What made their jobs easy was the fact that they taught the same courses every class cycle (two years of academics) - NO new material. Once the material was fully developed it was cast in concrete and never changed.
My proposal is simple - full time college professors need to be paid the same rate as the college’s adjunct professors. After all they have voluntarily restricted themselves to the same work load - why not the same pay scale?
#2 to pay for all the democrat schemes.
the administrators, which are most decidedly not adjunct.
To university administrators and their support staff and projects the administrators generate that don't really serve the core purposes of a university -- teaching and research. (We have a university golf course, which the faculty, to a man, independent of political persuasion, regarded as a boondoggle and mocked mercilessly when it was proposed, but were powerless to stop).
I will cite my own institution over the past 20 years or so: while enrollment increased about 20%, the faculty shrunk by 0.4%, the number of administrators and support staff answerable to them increased by 50%, faculty salaries barely kept pace with inflation, while administrators typically got 8% raises. The phenomenon is not peculiar to large state schools, and is documented in a book by a professor at Johns Hopkins entitled The Fall of the Faculty: the rise of the all-administrative university.
Incidentally a lot of the politically correct rot at universities emanates from the administrative superstructure, not the faculty, liberal though most of them outside hard technical disciplines (and classics, for some reason there are conservatives in classics departments, but I digress) are, from places like the Office of Student Life, or even Housing and Dining.
