How bad is administrative bloat in higher ed?
At MIT, the “student body has grown by 8% and its faculty by 9% since the mid-1980s. By comparison, the tally of administrators jumped by 189%.”

(3) Owner gets arrested in East Palestine, Ohio (yes, actually) for responding to an undercover prostitution ad. The visual of a billionaire pulling up to a mobile-home park in a rental car because he got catfished by the local police is honestly just too much.

And yet, somehow, none of those is the weirdest #49ers story. Because some dude named Daejon Love allegedly pretended to be a 49ers receiver and used the fake identity to defraud 26 women out of $1.3 million.
