HIGHER EDUCATION BUBBLE UPDATE, OVERPAID-ADMINISTRATOR EDITION: Ex-Bridgewater State President Cleans Up:

C’mon down, Dana Mohler-Faria. Former president of Bridgewater State College, or is it a university now, the better to jack up all the paper-shufflers’ salaries yet again? Whatever, here is the only curriculum vitae that mattered when he retired last July:

Pension of $183,421 a year. Plus a contract as “adviser” to the school — $100,000 a year.

But here’s the frosting on the cake. He walked out the door with an extra check for $269,984 in, ahem, unused sick and vacation time.

It’s one thing to feed at the trough, as the old saying goes, it’s another to lick the plate. . . .

How come in the Democratic presidential debates, whenever Bernie Sanders is railing about Big Oil, or Big Pharma, or Wall Street, he never mentions … Big College? Because he and his wife are capos in that particular ­1-percenter crime family, which puts almost all of the other grifts to shame. If there were real truth in labeling, the nation’s colleges would have to rebrand as Ripoffs ’R Us — just ask the fake Indian, Sen. Granny Warren, she of the $350,000 salary for teaching one course.

Well, and because the higher education industry is the biggest single source of donations, and footsoldiers, for Democratic causes.

Well, it’s not like people weren’t warned.
