I worked at a university that frittered away $150 million on a software rollout that was eaten by consultants and ultimately failed in every regard. Also, the same university is on a building binge, replacing donated buildings barely 10 years old with shiny new ones. Given the cost of CIP projects, that’s why tuition is so expensive... the universities playing “Keeping Up With the Yales” by pouring money into construction. If it weren’t for building binging, tuition would be much saner and in the realm of affordable for the taxpayer to prevent stalling the economic futures of students to be chained in debt with a degree that doesn’t help them enough to escape white-collar poverty.
