UA President Hart: Budget Cuts Disappoint But Don't Surprise - Vanessa Barchfield, AZPM

University of Arizona President Ann Weaver Hart said Monday she was disappointed but not surprised with the $99 million in cuts to state universities in next year's state budget. "I think that the political philosophy on which the current leaders ran for office was clear to all voters," Hart said. "And that political philosophy, which minimizes revenue and maximizes deregulation and private enterprise, was what we all knew it was going to be.” The UA's share of the reduction will be $28 million, and Hart said it will have devastating effects. https://news.azpm.org/p/arizona-news/2015/3/9/58586-ann-weaver-hart-says-things-about-the-budget/
