Message: [QUOTE="AZOrange, post: 1218849, member: 278"] Ok, I've read this whole thing now. It's kind of a joke. I mean could they ask more questions withou answers? I mean the read feels like paranoia in that respect. How many beds do we have? How many students do we need? Ahhhh! Burn it down!!!!! There are a couple of competing things here which seem inexorably strained. The university needs more money to survive whether via more students and/or more tuition. The number of prospective students is dwindling and those that are in the pool can't really afford it anyway. So it sounds like the answer is that SU needs to cutback. Fewer teachers, more disciplined approach to capital projects, etc. colleges are businesses and they can put themselves out of business if they're not careful. Athletics, it seems, is being used as a scapegoat. Is the budget public? How "red" are we? Similarly how big is the endowment and what are its sources/uses? [/QUOTE]
