[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some college presidents will be using the current Federal administration as political top cover for cost-cutting they want to do for unrelated reasons. [/quote]
This is likely to be the case. It is always difficult to cut costs when those costs are employees. Naturally, there will always be unpleasant pushback from those losing their jobs.

Perhaps universities will come through this trial more efficient than they were. The employees are the ones who will suffer most. Students may suffer at the margins, though that depends on the specifics of what is cut.[/quote]

Wait til the parents start complaining that their tuition costs keep rising, but suddenly no one will return their phone calls or answer their emails. Their kids will have harder times getting the classes they need as sections are collapsed. Mental health counselors will be in shorter supply as some of their kids spiral. Gym hours will be condensed. Garbage will pile up in the dorms as housekeeping is stretched… [/quote]

This is what I’m worried about.  We are full pay at an expensive college.  If my kid can’t get the classes they need when we are paying so much a year for them to get that education, I’m gojng to be really upset.  I really need a good tutorial on the costs of higher education because from my perspective colleges have already massively cut tenure track positions over the last few decades [/quote]
