Re: [Pen-l] Will Higher Education Be the Next Bubble to Burst?

actually, i have seen data on this recently and will try to track it down. what i saw was that in the time that costs were rising, faculty grew moderately while administration grew aggressively, largely in the area of student services. i can't recall if the numbers of students also grew substantially, but i want to say they did.
