1. Administrators. There are a veritable army of them at universities across the country. They have grown in proportion to students at an almost exponential rate over the last 50 years. Many of them are paid well into 6 figures in salary every year. They're also overwhelmingly communists. Cut. Cut. Cut.
2. Cut majors like East African Transgender Theory Studies in Oppression. All those future HR employees and future Cat Ladies will just need to find something else to major in. There are always the old standbys like English they could major in instead. That at least might be marginally useful. The boutique communist majors have no value at all.
The big one my my area is “film major” ???????
Then how will young people develop the skills needed to get in demand jobs like barista or InstaCart associate?
