Across major U.S. universities, there are significantly more non-instructional staff (administrators and other professionals) per student than in previous decades, and in many cases, there are more non-faculty staff than faculty . The ratio varies widely, but some elite institutions notably have a near 1:1 or even higher ratio of non-faculty employees to students or more non-faculty than faculty.

I think I see a problem here. Circa 1966 my school NLSC now the University of Louisiana Monroe had about 7000 students. Today it is about 8300. In 1966 the administration building had one wing of the chemistry building and about 20 offices and today it has a three story behemoth of a building with probably 100 offices. Do you see a problem with this?

Let me explain it in computer logic.

10 Washington gives taxpayers’ money to colleges.
20 Colleges brainwash the kids to make government bigger.
30 GOTO 10
