Bigger is better?

<p>According to the Chronicle of Higher Education, a full professor at Swarthmore made about $105k. Given that not all profs are full, the average Swat prof would not make $140k. This figure is more plausible if you factor in benefits, which amount to about 40% of the salary. </p>

<p>Still, I agree with the general argument. As well, increasing the student size, even if all costs were recouped, would change the character of the student experience.</p>
