Daniel Lakeland on Nostr: Tuition costs inflated dramatically faster than any other area of the economy since ...
Tuition costs inflated dramatically faster than any other area of the economy since 2000, and administration is like 3x as big as it was per student when I was in college the first time in 1990s. Meanwhile teaching has shifted to adjunct faculty who make less per hour than wait staff at restaurants. People outside of academia just imagine universities are similar to the way they were 30 years ago but its not even close.
