'We need better for our university'- Alex MacPherson, Saskatoon StarPhoenix

The U of S is cutting costs following an $18 million reduction to its $312 million operating grant — which has increased by more than $100 million during the Sask. Party’s decade in power — handed down in the 2017-18 provincial budget. Since the budget was released in March, the university has slashed $12.2 million from programs and services, reduced the salaries of 75 senior administrators and offered buyout packages to some unionized staff. http://thestarphoenix.com/news/local-news/we-need-better-for-our-university-controversy-over-devine-appointment-to-u-of-s-board-continues
