Budget restructuring to bolster Delta State’s future - Delta State University

President William N. LaForge and his cabinet addressed faculty and staff in two separate forums today to discuss recent reductions in Delta State University's budget. In President William N. LaForge’s State of the University address in August, Delta State University’s leader explained the need to identify and achieve permanent expenditure savings totaling at least $1 million to help put institutional finances in order. On Wednesday, LaForge released a campus-wide statement outlining the official Budget Reduction Plan. In his consistent effort to remain a transparent captain, he hosted open forums today for both faculty and staff, where he, vice presidents and the President’s Cabinet provided additional information and conducted Q&A sessions. University administrators remain steadfast on achieving the $1 million mark. http://www.deltastate.edu/news-and-events/budget-restructuring-to-bolster-delta-states-future/
