Anecdotally I just looked up the number of municipal employees for 2 random towns with populations of about 28,000 people. 1500 employees. I believe that's including teachers, police, etc. not just administrators.

Terrific insight.

Higher ed's admin:student ratios are closer to resort hotels.

My local uni has definitely transformed into a resort.

One of the consequences of charging full enrollment are the customers now expect a comparable (material) experience.
