Addendum on 'the business model' of education - this article at Inside Higher Ed. from 2009 does a good job of explaining it. Back then, it was the up-and-coming model. It is now standard at almost all major state schools, even though it doesn't work.https://www.insidehighered.com/views/2009/02/16/business-model-wrong-model …
Addendum 2: Some folks are pointing out that adjunctification here is a little lopsided and incomplete. And they're right! There just wasn't space in an already overlong thread. Being an adjunct myself, you can bet I have thoughts! But that will have to wait for another thread.
FYI - I've continued this thread here: https://twitter.com/BretDevereaux/status/1297679530744852481 … talking about university staff vs. administration, what we mean when we say 'bloat' and what we might do about it.
Can you clarify a point on the business model of ed? I agree with your tweets on it, but the assumption seems to be it is externally imposed. But tweet 15 seems more operative. One can't opt out of a red queen race unilaterally and survive. Do individual states have any choice?
Thank you for a good thread. Your suggested solutions are good, but delayed too much (nobody knows when covid will end) and miss the need to shift away from "college for everyone model".
@threadreaderapp unroll please
Salam, you can read it here: @BretDevereaux: So everyone is talking about UNC's COVID-19 mess - and all that criticism is perfectly valid. But we… https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1295909929228873728.html … Share this if you think it's interesting. 
Reading this I wonder the admin costs of adjuncts- hiring processes, access to University services, networks, etc, training in processes, support & coordination of people not used to their system, software, quirks, etc.
They are high and off-loaded onto already overburdened faculty who run the hiring committee, etc. If you’re lucky, you have an admin who can help with the paperwork. Every new hire requires a ton of extra labor but none of this is visible to the students or felt by higher ups
exceptional thread, bravo and thanks for laying it out so clearly and passionately
Great thread. Two adds: Some of the administrative cost increase comes from the requirement to add technology, which is very expensive, wears out quickly, becomes obsolete quickly, & is an essential part of 21st century education. It isn't an "amenity" & it isn't cheap. 1/3
The other is that over the last 40 years the government regulations affecting school have increased spectacularly. Most of them are excellent regulations (ADA, EEOC, HIPPA for example) but compliance requires extra hard costs, extra staffing & it's not an "amenity."
