If they didn't spend all that money building new things, they wouldn't have a bunch of tax write-offs. Colleges aren't for education, they're for making profits and keeping the cash $$$

I absolutely do not qualify for public assistance.
Edit: I know because I was kicked off public assistance when I got my TA position because my hourly and monthly income is far too high to qualify.

I was gonna say, Baltimore hasn't had a great run of recent mayors.

I don’t give a fuck about the system. I need a job, free healthcare, and my tuition paid for.

The full TA compensation package including benefits is >$40k for 8 months of work at part time. Even though we are technically only employed by the university for 8 months, our entirely free health coverage covers the full year.
This is nowhere near what living in poverty is like because I’ve been there.

Yeah, I've heard the same, and it's not like I'm doing this to be a dick. If I'm doing business travel I'm not getting reimbursed for expenses that aren't on my corporate credit card, your screwing me out of $30-40 if you try to force a cash payment

Hardly anyone gets art/art history degrees. People just pick whatever majors they don’t respect when they want to complain about college grads and usually those are the least common majors to start with.

$30k is not below the poverty line unless it’s a single earner family of 4.

You realize that your low cost labor is being used as a substitute for real academics right? This also drives down the wages of professors and other academics. It’s systemic

I can say their bioengineering department was offering 20k in 2018, which is fucking laughable

I give Nutter credit, he'll ask the tough questions, as opposed to the so called journalists of the Inquirer, who don't have the guts to ask the tough questions.

Meanwhile the president of temple is living in school funded housing while he submits plans to completely tear down his million(s) dollar old stone mansion to rebuild it new for millions more.
He gets 600k a year.
wonders if there are millions being wasted while others get shafted
