Message: <blockquote data-quote="HKSZYU" data-source="post: 22041535" data-attributes="member: 840151">No. That would imply professor salaries are increasing at a proportional rate to tuition increases. Over the past 10, tuition at many schools has nearly doubled. Professor and instructor salaries have not increased at nearly that same rate. In terms of salaries, the money is partially going to increasing teaching salaries, but often it's going to increasing salaries for administrative functions, or even adding new administrative roles, many of which are of questionable necessity. While most businesses try to run as streamline staffing as possible, dental schools (as well as many professional schools and much of the healthcare profession in general) run in the opposite direction because they have no incentive to streamline.You're correct in pointing out that tuition is increasing so much faster than the actual cost of educating students. That extra money goes into all sorts of places, from facilities, to development projects, to subsidizing research and R&D. Some of those things will directly benefit you as a student; a lot of it won't.</blockquote>
