The salary

Perhaps the extra dollars are more than consumed by increased administrative

Apparently they do get eaten up somewhere, and I wouldn't be surprised if
it were in administration. The administration crows about enrollment
increases, but refuses to hire more faculty and then complains when we must
cancel certain classes for lack of instructors (not for lack of students).
This makes me wonder whether we (faculty) should actually discourage
students from enrolling, which is not a heartening thought. The incentives
(and disincentives) of the current system seem to be working at cross-purposes.
