Reply to comment by Pink_Slyvie in Penn State, PSU, Temple and Lincoln say a tuition hike is needed, even with a 7% increase in state funding by Mrstucco

Don’t get me wrong I agree with the sentiment, but if psu got rid of 16/17 admins at 60k/yr (inclusive of benefits this is a reasonable cost per employee) it would save them a mil/yr. Seems like a good solution instead of hiking up costs even more.

PSU has a $149M deficit for their FY23 budget. $1M is pennies in the couch, and a lot of lower-administrators actually serve key support roles. Something is horribly wrong.
