U of Wisconsin Colleges to Cut and Consolidate Administrative Jobs - Inside Higher Ed

The University of Wisconsin Colleges, a system of 13 two-year college campuses, on Tuesday announced it would consolidate the leadership jobs for those campuses into four regions, with a single executive officer for each region. Those four leaders will replace the current 13 top posts at the campuses. The system said it was eliminating the equivalent of 83 full-time administrative positions to cope with its $5 million share of the $125 million state budget cut to the University of Wisconsin System. Another $125 million cut is slated for next year. The UW Colleges, which enroll 14,000 students, will not eliminate any faculty positions, the system said in a news release. https://www.insidehighered.com/quicktakes/2015/07/22/u-wisconsin-colleges-cut-and-consolidate-administrative-jobs
