The University of Chicago has now borrowed $6.3 billion, more than 70 percent of the value of its endowment. The cost of servicing its debt is now 85 percent of the value of all undergraduate tuition. This is not normal. No peer institution has a debt-to-asset ratio greater than 26 percent.

Without doing any research, I’m sure that this traces back to Boomers. Admins and other “owners” probably did some university version of a dividend recap, loading the place up with debt a-la the PE playbook, and then plan to head for the south Florida riviera with their “profits.”

I think endowment funds are usually tightly restricted in how they're used. For example, the donor might specify that the money be used for minority scholarships or other communist agitprop. Only a small number of donations can be used for operational needs.

To be fair,

How is this a "restriction" when it comes to running a prestigious American university in 2025? Sounds like they can basically spend those funds on anything they want, up to and including faggot sports with male cheerleaders.

It was always a poor school. Its per capita endowment was a fraction of Northwestern's last I checked, which may have been several decades ago. Princeton always seemed like the daddy, and there are a few niche colleges like Grinnell that sit on yuge per capita endowments. Oberlin was also rich per capita IIRC, and Rice was so rich it gave free tuition to Texas residents until recently. Harvard endowment is yuge but IIRC they also borrowed heavily against it like UofC. Not sure Princeton ever had to do that.

Btw, it isn’t the bonds that sink them. It isn’t the debt. It’s the empty hallways where no firm comes. The students sit with their useless résumés and their borrowed money and their bad degrees. Without OCI they are cattle without a market. In 2025 a boy leaves Hyde Park with his parchment and his pride and he earns $27,000k. That is the joke. The debt is theater. The real rot is that there is no ladder out. The school takes their money, borrows more, and laughs. Debt on debt. Pride on pride. It is all a con. And the worst of it is the students believe they are different. They are not. They are broke and ordinary.

I used my STEM degree out of college to make dick but then my buddy got me into a sales job and I was instantly making $100K. I quickly was made a sales manager and was making $150k. I hired this dork (I have no idea why) who after about a month criticized how I ran my 17 employee sales team and said "you didn't even go to business school. I went to the University of Chicago business school." I said "well why can't you sell anything then?" He either quit or was fired within weeks.

"And yet, after a brief amelioration, the faculty-student ratio at the University of Chicago has gotten worse nearly every year from 2011 to 2024, for the very simple reason that the University of Chicago placed itself so deeply in debt it could conceive no other way out. (There were plenty of ways out.)"

I used to work there. The University spent a lot of money on new buildings and “invested in the community” in an effort to encourage more students/professors to live close to campus. There was a revolving door at CFO.

“more teaching will be done by people with no formal contact with research.”

That’s actually a positive shift. Many professors dislike teaching, aren’t particularly good at it, and view it as an obligation that distracts from their research. Better to have classes taught by instructors whose sole focus is teaching.

You can't respect a college "professor" that doesn't do research. The whole bit is premised on them being smarter than you.

most college freshmen have no idea what research their prof does, or are even aware of the publish-or-perish promotion model. do you think they respect a checked out boomer who doesn't explain things well because he published a few journal articles 10 people read?

Yes you can. The University of Paris used to treat lecturing as a bloodssport where students were invited to critique the lecturer and find gaps in his knowledge. A good teacher was a lecturer who could take the heat and dish it back. One guy was so good his adversaries castrated him

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Abelard

Didn't "publish" SHIT until after he was castrated. Or if he did it's not what aggro'd the other faculty in Paris

$40 million in annual payroll toward sinecures for 29 Boomers. Almost $3.5 million to the former president. Not a single giant sports contract on the list, just all admins and professional school leaders.

Two of whom must be delighted to have their line items unreadable because they got cut off between pages of the PDF.
