WSU votes to cut nearly $31M from budget - Kelley King, WDTN

After exceeding last year’s budget by millions of dollars, Wright State’s Board of Trustees voted to cut $30.8 million from its budget for the 2018 fiscal year. “I don’t want anybody to pay for this, but we’re past that point,” said WSU Board of Trustees Chair Doug Fecher. “There are many things on life-support at the university,” admitted WSU Trustee Bruce Langos. Under the directive, 57 jobs will be cut as opposed to the original 71 in the proposal. Another 119 currently vacant positions will be eliminated. http://wdtn.com/2017/06/09/wsu-votes-to-cut-nearly-31m-from-budget/
