University of Alaska president outlines grim budget picture - Jeff Richardson, News Miner

University of Alaska President Pat Gamble recited a list of programs Thursday that are being eliminated or are in serious jeopardy, then capped off his report to the Board of Regents with a grim conclusion — expect the same process next year. Gamble told the regents that the rough patch at UA won't end in fiscal 2016. He said the need to fill a sizable budget gap — expected to be $30 million or more this year for the university— will likely continue for several more years. "We see nothing to suggest that '17 is going to be any better," said Gamble, who met with regents at the University of Alaska Fairbanks Kuskokwim Campus in Bethel. http://www.newsminer.com/news/alaska_news/university-of-alaska-president-outlines-grim-budget-picture/article_64fd51ee-df29-11e4-8bd0-57365b7b9651.html
