As a highly educated person, this should upset me. But...

The University of Colorado may well be on the right track, and not the tenure track. Once again, it is all about money. As the cost of higher education skyrockets, the PhD's that are running the colleges don't seem to have the answers. Though I agree that PhD's should be doing the research that can bring in money, it seems financially smart to hire the people who can bring in larger chunks money, regardless of their level of education. If university foundations can benefit from the fund-raising expertise of less-educated individuals, then scholarships can increase and more people can afford college.



Just my thinking.
