I thought that this should be passed on.

Dear ODK'rs:
Truman is looking at another $3 million cut in June, making state budget
cuts this year to the University $6 million. That is the amount of budget
cut the University will absorb again next year at a minimum. Now there may
be additional cuts in state funding. The University was only able to
off-set the $6 million cut next year by about 1/3 with the tuition increase
and has already planned to absorb the other 2/3rds by leaving positions
vacant, cutting operational budgets, freezing equipment expenses, and
dipping into University emergency reserves. The additional $3 million cut
this fiscal year (2001-2002 academic year) will force the University to
look at furloughing staff (mandatory unpaid leave in June) and asking
administrators to work without pay. Some of this could be avoided if the
state legislature would approve use of the Rainy Day Fund for some of the
budget shortfall. The Republicans in the Legislature have voted against
it, while the Senate voted in support of using the Rainy Day Fund. Our
local representative, Bob Behnen, voted with the Republicans against using
the Rainy Day Fund. This will have serious consequences for Truman,
Kirksville, and Adair County. Truman is the county's largest employer, so
salary cut's will have a ripple effect in the community.
If you are a resident of Adair County or an out-of-state student, I urge
you to e-mail representative Behnan and voice your opinion. Senator
Cauthorn voted in support of using the Rainy Day Fund. You may want to
thank him and express your support. If you are a Missouri resident, you
may want to contact your appropriate State Representative and
Senator. This is another time when ODK members can advocate on behalf of
the University and its community. These budget cuts will have a serious
impact on institutional resources and by extension, the quality of
education and services Truman can provide for its students. Contact
information below.
Wish I had cheerier news on this front. Congratulations to the graduating
seniors (one set of honor cords left!)! I wish the rest of the membership
a good summer!
