One more reason higher (and all) public education is in trouble

A picture sure is worth a lot of words.... The above map, from here, really demonstrates how completely insane higher education has become.

That's a map of highest paid public employees, by state.

State by state, every state, the highest paid public employee is in higher education. Not the governor, not a senator, not some life-saver...but someone in higher education.

Yes, most of it is coaches, so I guess the time for me to talk about the immense fraud of college athletics draws nigh...but the fact remains, higher education is a system of plunder, devoid of integrity. All the money poured into higher education has not gone to education, or to educators.

And the picture tells the tale.

nonsense

It is a real nonsense. School is supposed to prepare students for the future career but as we see it tends to prepare for something else. They constantly worry about their sports achievements getting ready papers form services like this [Link] . But when you apply for a job nobody asks you about your coach and if you can play football well. Maybe it is high time to pay attention to some other important things? I also remember how difficult it is to survive when you are not athletic and just want to study.

Dismiss devices; the destiny of guideline advancement is about the cloud and wherever right to use. The future is about access, wherever learning and facilitated exertion, both locally and all around.

This is just very sad and for sure it is very hard to believe that a higher education education employee can actually get more than a senator or a governor, really this is alarming. Thanks for sharing on the information.
