Layoffs looming at UGA - Lee Shearer, Athens Banner-Herald

The University of Georgia and other state public colleges may have to slash budgets even more than they already have.... The legislature cut state allocations to system schools by about $274 million, or 11.9 percent, for the 2010 fiscal year, which begins July 1 - $238 million slashed from this year's budget, plus $36 million more the legislature whacked off next year's budget.
