Sentences with phrase «lavish faculty retreats»

Again from Jackson and his team: «money per se will not improve student outcomes» because, for instance, «using the funds to pay for lavish faculty retreats will likely not have a positive effect on student outcomes.»

Given that money per se will not necessarily improve student outcomes (for example, using the funds to pay for lavish faculty retreats or to shore up employee pension funds will likely not have a large positive effect on student outcomes), understanding how the increased funding was spent is key to understanding why we find large spending effects where others do not.
