He said today that spending on higher education in Ohio has been growing faster than other things. He neglects to mention all the years it was cut repeatedly. Anyway, his solution is a 20% cut. In the Collegian it said that UT's budget would probably be cut 20%, but that makes no sense since only 1/3 of the support comes directly from the state, so 20% of 1/3 is more like 6 or 7 percent, no? Anyway, it looks like no matter what programs will be cut and we are doomed to slide even farther back into a new Dark Age.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044792945653054348.post-27071416216676747142010-12-08T21:01:22.365-08:002010-12-08T21:01:22.365-08:00I found the Deans story where you all said it was-...I found the Deans story where you all said it was--in small print in a side column among other small-print stories.

This...Dave,<br />Why do you need to know at this time? <br /><br />This administration times release of information to those that need to know. Input, consultation, transparency, laws, constitutions, and contracts are all defined by this administration and we of the faculty are commanded to obey those definitions. We will be told what we need to know when we need to know it. <br /><br />According to our commander, we are respected and honored and that those words when uttered should be enough to dissuade us from further inquiry. He is deeply grieved when we feel that we have been slighted in the least by this and he is filled with admiration when we ignore him.<br /><br />Have the faith of benign intent, my good man. <br /><br />Anon of http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/anon.htmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
