a small public university that operates close to its margins with an endowment of only $65 million.


What is a public university doing with any endowment

Only 65 million for a small university cry me a river.

Over the past decades universities have become bloated wasteful institutions living on the high times of high tuition funded by student loans for degrees that are mostly useless.

Then they join the chorus of “student debt is too high” and demand that the govt which gave the loans, forgive the loans.

As Kirk says colleges these days are mostly a scam

And get rid of all the black, gay, ethnic, underwater basket weaving studies and actually teach useful courses.

I think it’s better for them to go bankrupt first. They can restart teaching what people want or need to know only.
Finally, the myth which developed in the 2000’s about college education(except the hard sciences) being so valuable is dying
