Louisiana State University to be hit by $3.4 million midyear budget cut Story - the Daily Reveille

A pattern of midyear budget slices at the University continued for the fifth time today when Interim System President and Chancellor William “Bill” Jenkins announced that the University will take a $3.4 million midyear budget cut. “The tuition revenue associated with greater enrollment will offset the effects of a mid-year cut on basic services, so individual units on campus will not be asked to reduce their budgets,” Jenkins said in a broadcast email. “Unfortunately, this mid-year cut results in a loss of funds for LSU that would otherwise be available for additional services to support an expanding student body.” http://www.lsureveille.com/news/administration/article_9c1c6dac-4b03-11e2-9642-0019bb30f31a.html
