Abstract: | The authors construct and respond to several questions about changing administrative costs for new Research I Universities (RU1s), which is a group of institutions expected to incur new costs as a result of their new status. Using IPEDS data, this study provides mixed support for the claim that universities reaching the pinnacle of research university status experience increase administrative costs as a result of their aspirations and the realities of their new stature. |
