UM looks at more potential cuts due to declining enrollment - Sonji Milburn, NBC Montana

Tight budget times mean the University of Montana has to change its spending, and that means deciding what's a priority and what's not. "Budget is one of the driving factors, but also we have a new strategic vision out," said director of communications Paula Short. A university panel added 12 programs to the list for possible consolidation, cuts or elimination. The list includes minors in film studies and Latin American studies, two-year programs in food service management and paralegal studies, a global health certificate and the East Asian studies undergraduate degree. http://www.nbcmontana.com/news/keci/um-looks-at-more-potential-cuts-due-to-declining-enrollment/652671735
