During the past several years, we hav tuition a number of times for all of our students. Out-of-state students have been to raise particularly hard-hit. For some time, we have been afraid that we have been pricing ourselves out of the market, even with in-state students. With more and more people attend colleges and other universities in the state, we have recognized that those who want to to this university must have some relief. ing junio come Unfortunately, of course, the board's actions will have some negative effects on some parts of the university. Cutting tuition means a reduction in our income, and that reduction will have to be made up in other areas. No faculty or staff member will lose his or her job because of these cuts, but we will not be able to offer as many of the programs as we have in the past. The faculty and staff members whose programs will be eliminated will be absorbed into other areas of the university. I am very pleased about that. The students attending these programs, of course, must find alternatives. The programs to be cut are women's studies, ornithology department, arts and sciences honors program, women's golf team, men's golf team, human resources management institute, university hosts and hostesses program, and the department of Eastern languages. The geo ogy department will be merged with the geography department.
