@zeblarson@hcommons.social I strongly feel there’s a broader story of corruption here, whereby in response to the cuts and control from hostile legislatures, public universities have found a lot of ways to compensate the scions and allies of the empowered elite.

@donaldball@triangletoot.party That's definitely part of it, but I feel like we're actually catching the back half of that: that culture of catering to the elite has just translated into routine, bullshit corruption at the bottom. The woman in question had no influence, no money, no successful business, and the adjectives used to describe her in the report are "weird," "unpleasant," and "persistent." Now it's all just a piggy bank.
