University of Iowa president calls pay freeze 'logical budgeting' - Vanessa Miller, The Gazette

What some perceive as a pay freeze really is just logical budgeting, University of Iowa President Bruce Harreld told the Board of Regents on Wednesday, indicating those types of adjustments could persist so long as state support continues to flounder. “We spent the last year focused on understanding our budget and revamping the process so it’s transparent and predictable for our academic leadership,” Harreld said as the board considered approving the UI’s $6 billion budget for fiscal 2019. “This predictability has been enhanced by some of your actions as a board and by some of the actions we’ve taken on campus.” https://www.thegazette.com/subject/news/education/university-of-iowa-president-bruce-harreld-calls-pay-freeze-logical-budgeting-20180801
