Forbes: Reviving the American University In One Easy Step:
Out of the lively discussion around my article, Killing–And Reviving–The American University in Five Easy Steps, came an interesting suggestion that could go a long way to fixing the situation in one easy step.
Debra Leigh Scott suggests that just as health care system is being
required to show that 80% of healthcare insurance is spent on
actual health care, rather than administration, so the university should
be required to spend at least 80% of its budget on actual
education, rather than administration, entertainment, sports and luxury
amenities.
