IHE has this short piece on Evan Dobelle, recently ousted as president of Westfield State in Massachusetts for his wild spending that clearly had nothing to do with advancing the interests of the school. Ten years earlier, he was terminated from his post as president of the University of Hawaii for similar reasons.

This is further support for Professor Henry Manne’s argument that all education is really for-profit education. The distinction we draw between for-profit entities (boo, greedy!) and non-profit ones (altruistic, hooray!) is terribly misleading.
