> The party-planning process will be streamlined and more administrators will be hired to help facilitate student social life.

This could be a line straight out of "Brazil" or some similar work, I laughed out loud.

The more administrators will be hired part reminds me of a poster at my dads work back in the 1970's. It read.

'Adding more engineers to a project that's in trouble is like using gasoline to put out a fire'

Off hand it feels like the issue here is the universities idea is the committees jobs is to ensure the students party responsibly without taking on any actual responsibility themselves.
