Not unless something has changed radically. The administrators are nominally there to do specific things. For example, there might be an administrator whose job is to liase (sorry!) with the students on staff at a group of houses to make sure that they do their jobs and to find out when the university needs to do to help. For example, if there is a plumbing problem, students would tell this administrator and they would get it fixed.
Of course, there seem to be a lot of administrators these days if all the articles are right, so perhaps there are now extra ones doing nothing particularly useful or administrators whose job is to make policy.’
There is no administrator that actually helps students with daily tasks.
- lumost 4y agoThe above commentator was almost certainly being facetious. However with so many highly paid administrators - there could be an alternate world where they simply did serve students in daily needs. Considering this alternate world, it really does beg the question what these administrators are doing.
- nobody9999 4y ago>there could be an alternate world where they simply did serve students in daily needs. I'd say an alternate time[0] (up to ~50 years ago) rather than an alternate world. That said, domestic servants are still common today in some parts of the world. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedder https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedder
- giardini 4y agoNo apology is necessary as "liase" is a valid word dating back to at least the early 1900's: https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/liaise https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/liaise amluto notes: >"There is no administrator that actually helps students with daily tasks."< We graciously thank you for pointing out this oversight and shall take measures immediately to correct it and ensure it never happens again!
