UWSP may cut majors to meet budget needs - Mimi Mitrovic, WAOW

Budget cuts in the UW school system is causing universities to eliminate majors and minors from their programs. UW-Stevens Point is in the works of transforming their science department. The university will no longer hold majors in geography and geology. Interim Dean of the College of Letters and Science Eric Yonke said they have to down size in the college because of low enrollment. "Even though we're down sizing," said Yonke. "The main goal is we're pushing out some new programs," said Yonke. http://www.waow.com/story/36351283/2017/09/Tuesday/uwsp-cuts-majors-to-meet-budget-needs
