What budget cuts have already taken place to make up for the budget gap?
All divisions have submitted budget cuts for their operations. These cuts range from reductions in operating expenses such as subscriptions, travel and professional development, to consolidation of some services, to moving some publications (such as the College Catalog) to Web-only distribution. We have put some planned capital projects on hold. Some College events have been cut, or are being done on a more modest level. Salary increases were considerably smaller than in recent years. We have also postponed a planned debt issue, the proceeds of which would have been used primarily to finance a new residence hall.
