One word: money
Yep, I kinda expect this kind of utilitarian villainy from Musk. But, seeing this happen at UC Davis is an eye opening view of just how corrupted by funding schemes US research institutes are becoming.
This is what happens when university leadership positions are filled with nothing but econ and business "educators".
It's america as a whole though. Everything has is berning pushed to private industry. America can't even launch anything into space without the help of a deranged billionaire. America has fallen so hard.
Yeah, it's real unfortunate. I work for a university hospital, who's CEO is always supposed to be a physician. Up until about ten years ago it seemed to help the balance of public good against financial reward. Then we started to see a slew of physicians who went back to school for business management getting hired for upper management.
