Maybe the DEI staff could make the same amount of money if they had the same turnout at their events that the football team does. [/quote]

Maybe it would be nice if the mission of a university could be more about education and building a better society instead of an archaic, gladiatorial sport where millions watch the efforts of tens of people bashing each other.

Success at one type of effort is much harder to measure.

And my point is proportion anyway.   Millions are spent on football which is mainly a branding and loyalty generating engine.  And yes, it earns money, but that revenue just funds more sport. So blah blah the DEI coordinators are paid a lot...so are the coaches, the law profs, the b-school profs, senior faculty, etc.  The salaries are only outrageous if you think the work has no value.  I understand that's your belief.  But the salaries are on par with other well-paid, middle income jobs.[/quote]
