In a recent blog post, I wrote about UNC President Erskine Bowles' desire to keep budget cuts to the public university system lower than it appears the state is headed.
Well, here are some specifics, via our local public universities here in the Triangle, on how the cuts might affect campus services. The information comes from a 24-page report to the UNC system's Board of Governors that you can read in its entirety by clicking the link below this post.
Highlights:
At N.C. Central University, a seven percent cut to next year's budget amounts to a loss of $6.6 million and would bring about, among other things:
• The elimination of 54 positions, 22 of which are faculty.
• Elimination of 340 class sections
• Reduction of 2.5 police department positions, 6 housekeeping positions and 2 groundskeepers.
At N.C. State, a seven percent cut is about $36 million. Specific cuts would include:
• 404 positions eliminated including about 70 faculty slots.
• 180 class sections eliminated, most in general education courses affecting all students.
• Course reductions in biological sciences, College of Education and engineering labs.
• Library will close for third shift, cancel 1,200 journals and buy 4,200 fewer books annually.
• Study abroad and community engagement programs will be cut by one quarter.
• Emerging programs in textiles, design, management, humanities and social sciences will be eliminated.
• The Agricultural Research Service would lose 78 positions, all of which are filled.
At UNC Chapel Hill, a seven percent cut amounts to a loss of $40 million. Among the cuts:
• 267 positions eliminated, 107 of which are faculty slots. 62 faculty slots are in health affairs.
• Loss of allied health faculty would lead to an increase in the shortage of physical therapists, radiology assistants and audiologists.
• 372 fewer course sections could be offered.
The UNC system's Board of Governors will discuss all of this next week.

Budget cuts
Fri, 03/13/2009 - 19:14 — barbie50How about cutting Mary Easley from the NCSU staff?
UNC BUDGET CUTS
Fri, 03/13/2009 - 19:13 — barbie50FIRST< THEY CAN CUT Mary Easley off at NCSU. She wouldn't be missed and she can go back home to Southport and quit siphoning public dollars.And, NCSU can quit running those silly public service announcements on WTVD..In fact, they should take a close look at public relations staff in the system. These aren't people who provide public information -- in fact, they often stand in the way of public information and devote time to burnishing the universities' image at public expense.The Universities can use this as an opportunity to retool what they are doing...are they offering the right classes for the 21st century or a lot of "same ole" that could go and not be missed.
UNC System Cuts
Fri, 03/13/2009 - 18:40 — igliigliThe UNC System should cancel all trips to the ACC Tournament and fire all the coaches. Then they would have enough money to keep the academic positions. College sports, the biggest taxpayer and student rip-off around.
I'd say there are 26,000
Fri, 03/13/2009 - 21:53 — allrightnowRip-off? I'd say there are 26,000 people, daily, in Atlanta, this weekend, that would disagree with you along with the untold thousands who have watched, at least, parts of those games.
No athletic money, from the athletic foundations, would ever see its way into a university budget should athletics be cut. It's private money donated to support the university athletic programs. Yet it frees up other dollars for academic programs.
I'd say you're spitting in the wind, but then again, I think you know that.
So UNC Chapel Hill
Fri, 03/13/2009 - 17:28 — WilmingtonDemocratSo UNC Chapel Hill Chancellor Holden Thorp has the University pay to fly his family on the State private lear luxury jet to the ACC tournament at the same time NC colleges are cutting faculty. Maybe the UNC System should apply for TARP funds?
RE: So UNC Chapel Hill
Fri, 03/13/2009 - 18:00 — ThinkingThe university (state funds) didn't pay, a foundation did (likely the university foundation that holds private gifts). And the Thorps are reimbursing the foundation. What's the problem? Or more importantly, what's with the axe you're grinding?
