The article estimates the efficiency of 59 public higher education institutions in Poland in rising of funds for didactic and scientific activity in 2015 using nonparametric DEA method. We used output-oriented BCC model. The work also uses the subsampling procedure to assess the accuracy of the previously performed efficiency measurement. Twelve universities turned out to be fully efficient in the above-mentioned scope, while the average efficiency is quite high and close to the median.

Purpose The purpose of this article was to extend the concepts of systems of oppression in higher education to the clinical setting where communication and swallowing services are delivered to geriatric persons, and to begin a conversation as to how clinicians can disrupt oppression in their workplace. Conclusions As clinical service providers to geriatric persons, it is imperative to understand systems of oppression to affect meaningful change. As trained speech-language pathologists and audiologists, we hold power and privilege in the medical institutions in which we work and are therefore obligated to do the hard work. Suggestions offered in this article are only the start of this important work.
