All of these universities are pricing themselves out of the market. If they would shut down some of the fluff departments and get back to serious education it would cost a lot less and more people could afford to got.

With the kind of money these schools are asking, they can't afford to act they way they did over Churchill.

i agree.

i'm anti-union, and many universities are unionized.

about 10 years ago the unions convinced some universities to reduce the teaching load from 3 to 2 courses per term.

meanwhile, american taxpayers are increasing productivity.

tenured faculty have an average pay of just about $100,000 per year. not bad for working only 9 months.
