FYI...I was just watching channel 4 news and they had a peice on Gov. Tim Kaine's state budget reduction plan. Today he annonced that all public educational instutions will have a 5-7% budget cut. 570 state employees will be laid off and 800 currently unfilled positions will remain that way. The 2% salary increase will also be postponed (booo!). He also noted that 2010 will be even worse!
Within the past 4 months my office has completly reorganized/restructured and there are 2 fulltime positions and 1 part-time position that will remain unfilled.

I also read this information Mason's website today. I love how the news came out about budget cuts after we discussed them in class on Tuesday.
International goal on the bottom - think it's because it's expensive to build campuses overseas?
This will prove to be a powerful incentive to get everyone to participate in annual evaluations.
I have already seen an increase in closed door meetings and alliances developing to deal with the budget issues.
