How many people will actually lose jobs due to the budget cuts?
We have not filled vacant positions unless they were critical. However, there will be several reductions in the work force from filled positions. In the first round of cuts Academic Affairs terminated 44 people and the division of Finance and Administration terminated 17 people. Student Affairs also terminated one person. We will attempt to relocate these employees elsewhere if critical vacancies occur, and some of these positions will be funded by non-general revenue. Should the second reduction occur, it will result in many more employees losing their positions.
