Purdue slashes IPFW's budget -Paul Wyche, The Journal Gazette

Fewer students mean a smaller budget at IPFW – a nearly 3 percent cut to be exact. The Purdue University Board of Trustees on Friday approved a tentative general fund operating budget for fiscal year 2015 that includes a 2.9 percent decrease to IPFW. That will reduce the college's funding to $107.9 million, from about $111 million. Enrollment at the school is about 13,000, which includes full-, part-time and dual-enrollment high school students. IPFW is the fifth-largest campus in the state. http://www.journalgazette.net/article/20140517/LOCAL04/305179961
