Ithaca College will cut its full-time faculty count by 130, from 547 total, by 2022. The college admits the number is big but says its plans are an acceleration of a five-year strategic vision that would have otherwise been executed by 2024. “There is no joy in this,” said La Jerne T. Cornish, provost. “It is painful and it is necessary. If Ithaca is going to thrive and continue to serve generations of students, we’ve got to address our issues right now, without delay.”
