Creative thinking drives Agricultural Sciences amidst budget cuts - Cory Ray, Daily Egyptian

The SIU College of Agricultural Sciences is digging for new ways to manage budget cuts. Nearly $167,000 was cut from the college's budget, but Mickey Latour, dean of the college, said, the college is also experiencing cuts from University Farms and the Soybean Center. While the main cut of 2.8 percent is nonrecurring, University Farms and the Soybean Center are undergoing 10 percent cuts that will be applied each fiscal year. http://www.dailyegyptian.com/news/article_1826cdea-8e61-11e5-9f85-d389c1be78fa.html
