it is much more than that. Administrators are paid to promote the school, not to enhance education, although advancing education can be a promotion. Mostly they promote athletics and downplay 'issues'. For this they retain their jobs. Poor publicity means loss of the job.
Academics is rated very low in schools, including colleges. More scholarships, endowments, positive publicity are given to athletics, bands, etc, than to scholars. Unless you are the cream of academia e.g. Ivy League.
