American Universities are for profit corporations and need to be investigated. They have huge endowments and pay admins huge sums.
Yet they crush students with unbelievably high tuition.
We have a student loan crisis, that is mentally destroying millennials.
They refuse to pay grad students a living wage.
They refuse to open up publicly funded research.
They overfund huge sports teams while underfunding much needed scientific research.
Universities may have been a beacon of science before, but now they are a profit-seeking parasite destroying students and true scientific progress.
Endowments:
Harvard - 35 billion
Yale - 25 billion
Stanford - 22 billion
Princeton - 21 billion
MIT - 12 billion
Upenn - 10 billion
Texas A&M - 9 billion
Why do these universities need taxpayer money AND force students to take loans ?!
