Fresno State eliminated 27 manager positions and plans to lay off 13 staff members in mid-January due to a budget shortfall, according to school officials. No faculty members are affected, and the list of staff layoffs has shortened since October, after seven people either retired or resigned, according to university spokesperson Lisa Boyles Bell. The staff layoffs are effective Jan. 19. The university also eliminated some student assistant roles and moved 24 other employees to different departments or positions, according to an internal email from President Joseph I. Castro to employees, which was obtained by The Bee.
