Writing today in the News & Observer, UNC Chapel Hill Chancellor Holden Thorp talks about the Bain report, an analysis unveiled last week by a private consultant that suggested that the university has quite a bit too much bureaucracy.
Thorp writes that the report will help UNC-CH find ways to become more efficient, and in doing so, may help improve public confidence in the way universities are managed these days.
He writes: "Legitimate concerns are being expressed about the growth in our administrative costs. We're proud that Carolina has been ahead of the curve in addressing these concerns this year, and this report shows that we are serious about changing the way we do business."
