Well, if you honestly believe that Carnegie Mellon University is the same as the NFL as a non-profit, especially given our long track record of education and research, there really isn't anything I can say to convince you. So let's just end this here.

His/her point is that being a non-profit is often just a legal structure with tax protection. It is not a valid reason to charge a high price for something. Not addressing his/her point does not make it any less valid.

Importantly, faculty and admin staff at both the NFL and CMU are both highly paid.

Is this an example of the persistence and determination in the face of adversity and criticism one can expect to learn at CMU?
