KCTCS cuts 500 faculty, staff positions - LINDA BLACKFORD, Herald-Leader

Facing a $26 million shortfall caused by declining enrollment and a decade of budget cuts from state government, Kentucky’s community college system has cut 506 positions, including 170 faculty and staff jobs that were occupied. According to the Kentucky Community and Technical College’s central office, colleges have cut 191 faculty positions and 315 staff posts. Because many of the positions were vacant or were vacated through retirements, only 45 faculty and 125 staff were actually laid off. http://www.kentucky.com/news/local/education/article78360412.html
