That class of 100 has likely paid the university over $1 million in tuition, even if they're all in-state students. Assuming they take 12 courses, we've got $83k per course coming in.
Assuming each TA is paid a generous $20 per hour, that's $800 for a 40-hour week.
I'm no professor, but I'm pretty sure $800 is less than $83,000. I know universities have a lot of overheads, but surely 1% of the tuition money could be spent on tuition?
