Arkansas Tech University trustees have adopted a resolution outlining broad priorities for a restructuring process as the university anticipates budget shortfalls in the coming years. The restructuring is part of a five-year program evaluation and budget initiative, according to a university announcement. The resolution includes seven guiding principles and six goals. Top among the guiding principles is a commitment to student access and success, and the top goal is "efficiency and effectiveness." The restructuring plan is under development; whether certain programs will be cut or expanded isn't decided yet. Among the goals listed is to "provide personnel who are impacted by the restructuring with available support."
