Montana State university system faces budget woes email to a friend - Associated Press

MSU officials are trying to adjust after they were told that the state university system is expected to face a $17.6 million hole in its budget when federal stimulus money runs out in two years. Jim Rimpau is MSU's vice president for planning. He and Craig Roloff, vice president for finance, say the university's $130 million general fund budget will probably lose $2.7 million to $3.1 million a year when the stimulus money is gone in fiscal years 2012 and 2013.
