MUN faces urgent building repairs amid severe budget crunch - Laura Howells and Ariana Kelland, CBC News

Officials at Memorial University are worried about how they will make urgent infrastructure repairs with practically no funding for deferred maintenance. "It is one of my biggest concerns right now," said Kent Decker, MUN's vice-president of finance. "It's a balancing act to balance off the risk of having to close parts the university down if we don't do necessary repairs." In a recent senate meeting, MUN announced that government provided no money for MUN's deferred maintenance in its 2015 budget, cutting off the $10 million that was already insufficient. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/mun-faces-urgent-building-repairs-amid-severe-budget-crunch-1.3098937
