Administrative Bloat at American Universities: The Real Reason for High Costs in Higher Education | Goldwater Institute


“Enrollment at America’s leading universities has been
increasing dramatically, rising nearly 15 percent between
1993 and 2007. But unlike almost every other growing
industry, higher education has not become more efficient.
Instead, universities now have more administrative
employees and spend more on administration to educate
each student. In short, universities are suffering from
“administrative bloat,” expanding the resources devoted to
administration significantly faster than spending on
instruction, research and service.”
