Doing More With Less: U Wyoming Down Roughly 300 Staff After Cuts - Associated Press

Coming off a year of severe budget cuts — handed down by the State Legislature in the face of declining extraction tax revenues — UW is being staffed by fewer people, who are subsequently asked to do more. Starting in summer 2016 and continuing until May, the university lost roughly 370 people through vacancy eliminations, separation incentives and layoffs, including approximately 300 staff members. Exactly 43 faculty members took separation incentive packages, though more left at the end of the academic year or before the start of the fall 2017 semester. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/wyoming/articles/2017-12-07/doing-more-with-less-uw-down-roughly-300-staff-after-cuts
