UMW puts freeze on hiring - LINDLEY ESTES, THE FREE LANCE–STAR

All hiring has been frozen at the University of Mary Washington in anticipation of deep cuts in the state-funded higher education budget. UMW President Rick Hurley notified faculty and staff of the temporary move to reduce personnel costs Tuesday. There are currently 23 open positions at the Fredericksburg university. Among the positions the university had advertised to fill are two jobs in the college of business, and positions in the police department, alumni relations and the center for international education and advancement. The department of disability resources is seeking a director. http://news.fredericksburg.com/newsdesk/2014/08/26/umw-puts-freeze-on-hiring/
