Youngstown State University publically released a list of the 26 academic programs that are being cut after a closed-door meeting last week. The YSU OEA-Union Spokesperson, Mark Vopat, points out that at the same time these programs are being cut, the school's athletic budget will increase by nearly a million dollars. The athletics budget is increasing 13% in 2022, going from $13-million dollars a year to almost $14-million.
