Colleges and universities are so much more expensive because parasites called ‘administrators’ must all get paid. At the expense of students and their parents. You could fire 95% of them, return governing authority to professors who do the real work - and save everyone $$.
Yale has nearly one bureaucrat for every undergraduate student — 6,401 management and professional staff and 6,667 undergraduates.
Since 1995, Yale’s bureaucracy has increased 147% while the student population has increased only 43% (and the undergrad population only 25%).
