Maybe the universities should teach them to code or something...

If these universities survive and operate without this staff, I see no reason not to fire them. Clearly they are not doing productive work and I don't believe in supporting such work.

What makes you think that the universities can survive without the current staffing levels? I assure you that with the maze of current funding structures, reporting requirements, travel planning, visa work, unfunded government mandates, etc., they cannot. The only way that they could survive is if the entire structure, and many laws changed. The unfortunate problem with that is then all US universities wouldn't be able to be the best in the world. Top US Universities wouldn't' be able to bring in the best from around the world, research at Universities would dwindle to a fraction of the current amount. Communication and knowledge sharing between peers at other institutions would shrink. The same people who currently complain loudest about the price of university would howl the loudest and diversity and inclusion offices closed at universities. Student amenities would be stripped. Funding for student mental health would drop. The list goes on and on.

Nah, the total number isn't enough to matter. There are over 1 million truck drivers alone, so they would be able to absorb them without too much trouble.
