  1. They are spending the money on themselves. The increase in administration is the highest in the country for Purdue University. Nothing here has anything to do with educating students.
    Individuals have found, in the past 30 years, how to legally steal all that public money that used to go to educate students at Hoosier universities. Now most of the money goes to support the administrators who "run" the place. The administrators have absolutely no oversight whatsoever. They get billions of dollars and no one asks why or where.

  2. Endowment money can frequently be used for building maintenance. The universities will not though because the have more fun things to spend that money on. Remember that endowment money is exempt from legislative oversight.
    No one knows if there is any real need for more money. No one has ever audited or had any financials of how the campuses are spending their money. (Everyone has always taken the word of the administrators -- the very ones who are overspending.)
    Finally, the regional campuses can have any amount of money per student the legislature wants. The problem is that the hacks we have had in Indianapolis have never gotten a tax dollar back up here; unless they could steal it. That is why the regional campuses, each of which is a line item in the budget, cannot count on support from our own representatives.

  3. The University only gives the freedom of speech to Muslims and to attacks against Jews and Christians. It does not ever, either here or in West Lafayette, permit any criticism, i.e. free speech of Islam. That to them is called harassment and will get you thrown out of school or censored every time. That is the reality.

  4. So the house Jew, Mayor Rahm Emanuel, is going to try and convince the Florida Jews to vote for the most anti-Jewish and anti-Israel president ever. Where have we seen this scenario before? Alternatively, where have we not?
