Administrator optimistic for Eastern, state budget - Cassie Buchman, Daily Eastern

Although the state budget for Illinois has not been passed yet, the university is still operating without one. Paul McCann, the vice president of business affairs, said right now the lacking state budget does not affect the university as a whole. “Eventually, when we use all of the tuition money at that point then it will have some effect because then I need those dollars to pay people to run the university,” he said. McCann said although they have tuition money now, it will run out at some point this year. http://www.dailyeasternnews.com/2015/09/27/administrator-optimistic-for-eastern-state-budget/
