UW President Reacts To Current And Future Budget Cuts - BOB BECK, Wyoming Public Media

This week University of Wyoming officials proposed cutting 16 academic programs in order to meet a $15 million budget cut required for the next fiscal year. University of Wyoming President Laurie Nichols notes that they are also looking at consolidating some programs and so in total she says they are actually looking at 8 to 10 program eliminations. In past years when the University of Wyoming has made budget cuts, it has tried to avoid eliminating academic programs, but Nichols has stood by her position that academic cuts must be considered. http://wyomingpublicmedia.org/post/uw-president-reacts-current-and-future-budget-cuts
