Washington State University Athletics Department in the Hole for $67 Million; Meanwhile, Adjunct Faculty in Washington State Languish in Poor Pay and Working Conditions, a Commentary by Teresa Knudsen

While the colleges and universities in the US, and Washington State, say they don't have the money to pay full professional pay and benefits to the hardworking adjunct faculty, there appears to be money to burn on athletics. Why has this much money been unaccounted for, and why and when did this athletic department lose so much taxpayer money? Maybe athletics should return to an adjunct for colleges and universities, and place the emphasis on providing real colleges and universities, to educate our fine citizens, and pay professional wages and benefits to the instructors and professors, not to games.
