How much longer will Kent be Chancellor?

I'll believe micron getting as big as they say when I see it with my own eyes..

This is the tired CNY way of thinking.

I dont know about that, but I do know that most schools are incredibly pressed for money and that any "profits" are minimal. Sure, presidents, provosts etc... make a good amount of money, but even their 500k-1M salaries are a drop in the bucket when your budget is a billion dollars.

Even SU is a tuition driven school. If there's a profit, then where's it going?

I can only speak to my school, but sticker price is basically meaningless. Our school recently raised tuition by like $4k/year. The next year, the school took in the exact same amount of money in tuition. Basically, they charged a specific demographic of students 4k more and gave cuts to other students.

Much of higher education has been awash in money for the last 10-15 years if not longer. The problem is that an outsized portion of revenues go to expanding non-teaching bureaucracies. SU is no exception.

I‘ve been in meetings with Micron officials. There’s no pockets being lined. Ignorance at It’s best.

Lol..ok.. Like I said I'll believe it when I see it.

Tell me you don’t have a clue without telling me. Go complain on facebook.

Take it how you want it, but it is the belief that these bureaucracies are needed in order to attract students. I've been in higher education for 15 years, and at least from what I've seen in the small sample size of schools I collaborate with -- I have not observed anyone awash with money.
