Stem and buisness Brainrot is also a factor for schools
There is this idea that
Stem and business = job
so people register for those in the highest numbers
and the other academic fields get less people to sign up and get budget cuts
the right and the deans and people donating to these schools want to turn universities into trade schools for stem and business.
But that's a smaller factor than football. Collegefootball is a major economic factor worth billions not just for these schools but the towns they reside in. so many of these towns the entire economy isn't the school but college football.
