Southeast president addresses budget during state of university address - Marybeth Niederkorn, Southeast Missourian

Toward the end of the address, Vargas acknowledged serious budgetary concerns. Printed materials were not available to audience members at the address because, Vargas said, the materials would be available online, and he saw no reason to incur the printing cost. The university is reviewing all operations, including staffing, operations and academic programs, Vargas said. “We are in the input process now,” Vargas said, and invited anyone with suggestions or questions to email. http://www.semissourian.com/story/2450113.html
