Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3227052, member: 1414"] He lives in that world so believes it’s real. I don’t doubt anything he says is accurate in most schools about how money is cross charged and moved around. But it’s all just a way to manage the business. The cost of instruction is not even most of the cost of a student, and faculty pay is the one area of higher ed costs that hasn’t outpaced inflation by 5x. The facilities and buildings are all sunk cost as you noted. UConn can increase class sizes anytime it wants. It costs nothing. UConn could end football tomorrow and cut 120 free students from the roster. They would not lay off any faculty as a resulting having 120 fewer students. [/QUOTE]
