5: In recent vears. Dublic universites have experienced maior budget cuts due to reduced fundine trom their state governments. These budget cuts usually occur at the most inopportune time-during the school year when contractual commitments with faculty and staff had been signed, programs had been planned, and students were enrolled and taking classes.

Should the administration be "fair" to all affected and institute across-the-board cuts whenever the state

announces a reduction in funding?

IT not across-the-Doard cutbacks in programs, then would vou recommend more tocused reductons, and

it so. what priorities would vou establish for bringing spending in line with revenues?
