Professor Mark Shapiro, a.k.a. The Irascible Professor, writes here about the fact that the California State University system continues to waste lots of money on raises for administrators, redundant offices, and consulting contracts, even as the state struggles to stave off bankruptcy. Judging from some unpleasant comments Shapiro has made in the past about NAS, I'd have to place him toward the left side of the political spectrum. It's interesting to know that people who are generally not disposed to complain about government waste do so when that waste is harmful to their own interests. By all means, professor, let's rescind those administrative raises and unnecessary spending you identify. How about ditching all the Offices of Diversity and Inclusion and other sinecures, too?
