Community College Grant Fund Requirements Clearer

Very nice.

I could tell you similiar story.

Over a 30 year teaching career in a very large, multicampus community college, the greatest disappointment was the bloated bureacracy that grew steadily each decade. This bloating results in intertia and an institutional mentality that stiles innovation. More and more the faculty have less and less say about curriculum,course offerings, class size or any number of things that have been the traditional purvue of faculty. Another trend that is most troubling: importing new administrators every 3-5 years. Much of this can be blamed on fickle governing Boards, but there is a culture of moving out and moving up amongst administrators, which causes a loss of institutional culture.

An interesting side effect of this grant program will be the hiring of countless mid level bureaucrats to monitor compliance and reporting and seek out more funding, which will require more bureaucrats to monitor....and on it goes. In the meantime, class size increases and instructional support decreases, all in the name of securing more funds.
