The University of Missouri will be shaggier and dirtier and faculty will be responsible for taking their own trash to dumpsters under the plan for cutting 50 jobs in campus operations detailed in an email memo sent Friday by Vice Chancellor Gary Ward.
Landscaping operations will be cut back so sidewalk edges are trimmed no more than twice a year and only in the most visible locations, Ward wrote. After Saturday football games, the debris left by tailgaters will not be picked up until Monday, he wrote.
Custodial staff no longer will clean or remove trash or recyclables from offices, Ward wrote.
“This frees up custodians to assist with recycling, which, previously, has been a volunteer effort,” Ward wrote.
The plan to save $5.47 million in the MU Operations division that employs 842 people exempts the MU Police Department and MU Environmental Health and Safety. Ward warned it likely means slower response time for maintenance issues, less overtime and slower snow removal.
In the email, Ward warned that “we will be unable to sustain the level of service for which you have become accustomed. I do not anticipate that changes beginning July 1, 2016, will inhibit the academic mission at Mizzou, nor is it my intention for that to ever happen.”

The Columbia campus is trying to cover $22 million of an expected $32.5 million shortfall because of declining enrollment and new commitments such as the new Division of Inclusion, Diversity and Equity, spokesman Christian Basi said.
The spiral down begins.
Leftists are like cholera or dysentary. And they will produce a lot of sh** before they kill you.
Get the useless liberal arts, history, English, and psychology professors to do some cleanup.
Africa
I’m sure the snowflakes will make every effort to help keep the campus in tip-top shape.
did they cut the bedbug buster job for the diversity office?
Yes, losses from declining enrollment must be substantial. You reap what you sow.
If I’m reading between the lines here, there aren’t many snowflakes left - and those “others” don’t volunteer...
Every Freeper should Read this Article, Then Watch this Documentary, then Read this Article Again.
This Documentary is like reading the Communist Manifesto, it should bring you to your Boiling Point! But, don't let it get to you, just sit back and watch How these lefty students think. Then you will have better understanding and appreciation of the aftermath reading this article again.
I felt a little less naive after I viewed it.

those groups just keep nagging and nagging. Nag, nag, nag. All day long
part of this is the melissa click effect.
You mean the “share the wealth” professors wouldn’t give up a little of their own pay to help these workers out?
What lessons are these professors teaching with their selfish, greedy behavior?
All gubmint universities need to be scaled down to just Business/Economics, Engineering, and Physical and Biological Sciences. Rest of the useless departments need to take a hike or raise money on their own. Way too many “sociology” and “arts and music” graduates wasting tax payers’ money.
Melissa click “doesn’t accept” her firing.
Despite the inconvenience it causes the lefty professors, the people who are losing their jobs are probably some local fella who mops the floors and vacuums at 11:00 P.M. :P
People who have nothing to do with Mizzou's stupidity.
Soon to be the “University of Misery”...
Fifty paychecks closer to a free college education.
If this was a sane university, they’d keep the essential custodial jobs and cut the ridiculous leftist “study programs” that have been there since the ‘70s.
