Ohio University President Duane Nellis stated in a campus-wide email today (Friday) that the university likely will need to reduce staffing in “most if not all” academic colleges and administration divisions due to ongoing budget struggles, largely the result of declining enrollment in recent years. Nellis in his email said that after months of analysis and campus conversations, Provost Chaden Djalali reported to OU’s academic deans this week that they probably will need to reduce their budgets by a total of roughly $26 million over the next three years. Meanwhile, OU’s administrative units will need to develop a plan to make reductions of “at least $8 million” across their budgets.
