University of Maine to cut $7 million from budget - Nell Gluckman, Bangor Daily News

University of Maine departments must identify $7 million in budget cuts, although top campus administrators are pledging to tighten belts without eliminating academic programs. The announcement of the cuts to the Orono campus’s $242.2 million budget was made at a faculty and staff assembly Thursday morning and was received fairly well. UMaine President Susan Hunter told over 100 people in attendance that no academic programs will be cut, but added that it is too soon to tell whether there will be faculty or staff layoffs. https://bangordailynews.com/2014/10/16/news/bangor/university-of-maine-to-cut-7-million-from-budget-this-year/
