The explosion of useless new administrators is a huge part of why college is so overpriced these days

Most major companies have the corporate equivalent of “Vice President of diversity and inclusion/equality”. The VP has to check at least two of the boxes consisting of minority/lgbqt/female. From what I gather, their job consists of assigning online learning/modules/programs that would best be titled “don’t be a misogynistic sexist homophobic racist a-hole” to educate employees on behavior that is inappropriate. Problem is, normal employees don’t do these behaviors, and the assholes they are targeting with their “educational programs” won’t change their behavior, so it is a colossal waste of time for 99% of employees. The VP also sends company wide emails that most people ignore. Besides that, and hosting an occasional symposium/webinar, I’m not sure what else they do.
