“This isn't just about me, Myers said. “Yes, I'm losing my job, this is unfortunate and believe me, it sucks. I mean it's a sock in the gut kind of a feeling, but it's more than that, it's about looking at these notions of what CMU is, and I can't help but feel like the greatest resource that CMU has is in its people.” Myers’ is one of several professors being laid off within the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences (CLASS). CMU is still adjusting its budget for the 2021-22 year, meaning some lecturers are still waiting to hear if they will have a job in the fall. It has been speculated by faculty and university officials that layoffs are being concentrated in CLASS.
