re: Note to Out of State Alums

Ya'll are going to be really upset when you get wind of the proposed budget cuts being announced mid sept.

LSU will be set back a decade or more as a result of these cuts. Over 100 profs/instructors to be cut. Some have already turned in their notices and left for greener pastures and many in the process of leaving but still teaching this semester at LSU. That means much larger classes and courses to be cut.

Many will not be happy with the cuts to be announced by facility services. They will be able to do routine maintenance and keep the grass cut but no new flower plantings or general landscaping improvements on campus. 80+ employees cut. Instead of custodial staff cleaning nightly every bldg it'll be reduced to 3 times a week per bldg.

On top of the elimination of many programs to come.
