>Universities used to be little more than professors and classrooms with very few administrators.

Correct. There was also no IT, counseling, healthcare, Title IX, and secondary public education was functional. Things are different now.

I wish it was getting spent on IT, counseling, healthcare and other practical services. Somehow I doubt the tiny staff at my university clinic, or the four IT people, were soaking all that money up.

Why do those things have to be a part of a university?

Counseling healthcare and secondary public education should be addressed somewhere else. University is the wrong place for that.
