How Missouri State plans to close funding gap - Hanna Sumpter, Missouri State Standard

Missouri State University cut 30 university positions as one of many steps to close the gap between state funding and the university’s budget last week. Of those 30 positions, 23 were open positions and seven were filled. University President Clif Smart said in last week’s Finance and Facilities Committee meeting the university would work with those seven people to attempt to find different positions for them within the university. “We’re in the process of letting those people know this week that that is occurring,” Smart said. “That is the only decision that has occurred so far.” http://www.the-standard.org/news/how-missouri-state-plans-to-close-funding-gap/article_fa3d54aa-20d7-11e8-b569-33662b082d7c.html
