“Also taking a pay cut are the universitys senior executives, including the university president and seven vice presidents, who each took a 10% salary cut. In addition, all associate and assistant vice presidents, associate provosts and vice provosts and deans will take a 5% pay reduction, the university said.”
I have no idea how many students go there, but it seems fairly heavy with vice presidents, associate vice presidents, assistant vice presidents, etc. How many do they need? How many of these people actually work? How many of them are getting mid-6-figure salaries?
This university and many others could meet their budgets without cutting anything useful.
