Here is an article which should be of interest to all of us interested in the future of higher education, universities, public universities, and WSU specifically:
"A Faustian bargain: An open letter to George M Philip, President of the State University of New York At Albany" by Gregory A Petsko at http://genomebiology.com/2010/11/10/138
On edit: This is an excellent article, but it concedes as true the claim that the humanities/liberal arts are not self-supporting. After reading this letter, also read "The Humanities Really Do Produce a Profit" by Robert N. Watson at http://chronicle.com/article/The-Humanities-Really-Do/64740/
