Reply #7: What the CSU Could Do

[dynasaw]

Get rid of the layers of bureaucracy. There are a whole lot of vice presidents, associate vice presidents, and managerial
types the system could live without.

Presidents of several campuses need to be weeded out. Some have been presidents for more than a decade, have lousy track records in terms of leadership, but who still collect six figure salaries.

Reed needs to be fired: It has been during his watch that the whole system has become bloated with the above said administrators at the expense of the real educational mandate of the universities. Under Reed, universities in the system have come to resemble what's been happening on Wall Street.

The whole proposal about raising fees while cutting enrollments doesn't make sense. One would think you'd raise tuition so you could deal support enrollment.

The Board of Trustees are a bunch of Republican political paybacks who know zilch about education. Stop giving them the power to have any say about how universities should be run.
