Budget Cuts Will Mean Significant Sacrifices at UC Riverside

Chancellor Timothy P. White announced $17 million in budget cuts across the University of California, Riverside on Thursday, saying such actions, and probably $2 million more, are necessary to preserve the core academic function of teaching admitted students. He said layoffs will be “minimal” and that furloughs will be a last resort. But there will be significant reductions in how much is spent on some programs and in hiring staff and faculty.
