UM President says input on pending budget cuts "helpful" - Dennis Bragg, KPAX

It's quiet now on the University of Montana campus with Winter Break, as this year students and faculty take a break from not only classes, but the swirling debate over major budget cuts. UM administrators say they need to trim between $10 million and $12 million from the 2017 budget to make up for revenue shortfalls generated by the past few years of falling enrollments. That's led to difficult, tense times on campus. But the man at the center of storm remains hopeful of having a fiscally stronger university in the years to come. http://www.kpax.com/story/30825899/um-president-says-input-on-pending-budget-cuts-helpful
