Facing $3.2M deficit amid declining enrollment, Arkansas university cuts budget - Debra Hale-Shelton, Arkansas Online

Faced with a $3.2 million deficit amid declining enrollment, Henderson State University has begun making staff and other cuts in hopes of balancing its budget in the next fiscal year. President Glen Jones said Henderson's declining undergraduate enrollment reflects southern Arkansas' shrinking population and higher admission standards. Enrollment at the university has dropped from 3,634 in the fall of 2014 to 3,342 in the fall of 2017. http://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2018/may/09/henderson-state-cuts-budget-20180509-1/
