    It happens whether or not you believe in it or want it to.

    I have no problem with the summary in points 1-11, but the connection to what follows is not compelling. The fact that administrative bloat continues, something for which Coltrane must bear responsibility, does not require that the decisions be motivated by neoliberal ideology. Indeed I suspect Coltrane feel profoundly insulted. But the central issue remains: when will the admin begin to take steps to redirect resources from the central bureaucracy to the instructional? Where are the voices demanding an accounting?

      About to go teach a liberal arts class, in fact.

      To UOmatters – I believe you need to re-title and leave the words “liberal arts” out of it. That would be more accurate.
