Liberal Arts to trim budget again - Hudson Lockett, The Daily Texan

Richard Flores, an associate dean in the College of Liberal Arts, is one of the members of an advising committee that must help Dean Randy Diehl decide where budget cuts will be made. After completing a first wave of budget reallocations this fall that included layoffs to non-tenured faculty and changes to foreign language curriculums, a committee of 10 faculty members appointed by Liberal Arts Dean Randy Diehl is taking the lead in deciding the next round of cuts. The cuts will be made over the span of three to five years, starting with the 2011-2012 academic year, said Richard Flores, associate dean for academic affairs at the college.
