@CowMan We're on the same page, I think.
Good money after bad doesn't square with what the data show though: every $1 dollar into MUN = $2 - 4 dollars out into the economy.
Uni's governance is bad and that's why it would be great if faculty were able to sit on Board of Regents (who make / approve all financial decisions), but that's was barred by law until December 2023.

@jlepawsky The KPMG report does show benefits, but without any reference to opportunity cost. I.e., CONA funding has a higher and faster ROI ... so if it's just dollar in for dollar out, MUN is valuable - but not #1. The AG report (2025) is scathing; and to walk on campus.. rings true. That is a problem. That is *the* problem. The 2023 AG report on compensation and admin fee is not as bad, but is also really bad. MUN needs dollars, yes, concur ~ but they are not well spent.
