Projected enrollment dip could mean University of Montana budget shortfall of $2.3-$10M in '16 - THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

If projections for a dip in enrollment at the University of Montana are realized, the college could face an estimated $2.3 million budget shortfall in the 2016 fiscal year, according to a UM official. The shortage jumps to an estimated $10 million if the university wants to fund new proposals, UM vice president of administration and finance Michael Reid said. The preliminary figures are based on enrollment, which becomes more definitive in March. http://www.dailyjournal.net/view/story/c34e6219a0194b9085e225ef4b7c2557/MT--UM-Budget/
