It sounds like you’re frustrated that the environment is becoming inhospitable for small colleges without a lot of money. That’s understandable, but are you perhaps saying that you all need to be looking at cutting down and getting lean, rather than hiring up?

I’m guessing it’s more often loss aversion than trying to profit by cornering the market.
