Lamar Alexander wants to simplify higher ed regulation

Thank heavens someone in Congress does.  Higher Education, students and parents are groaning under federal regulation.

The latest:  according to a recent Chronicle article, colleges are now creating compliance officers just to deal with Title IX --- and especially sexual assault cases --- exclusively.  My institution recently lost an associate dean of students to a university who hired him for precisely that role.  And who has to pay for this top-heavy administration: the student, of course.
