About half of the $49 million budget cut to East Carolina University will come from colleges and departments, officials announced Friday.

The 16 percent cut to ECU was one of 17 cuts to all University of North Carolina institutions, ranging from 8 to 18 percent, set by the Board of Governors finance committee on Thursday to meet the $414 million reduction to the UNC system by the state budget.

With some variation, each college or department will have to cut about seven percent of its budget, Chancellor Steve Ballard announced at a news conference Friday morning.

Steve Ballard

Chancellor Ballard is one of the finest common sensed men I have ever met. If there is a way to do it, he will find it. We should back his every move, though it may seem painful. His thoughts are always on the betterment of education at East Carolina University. In the years ahead, the changes he is forced to make now will be seen by all as the best for all. I want to personally thank him for his continued service to ECU and hope that he remains for a long time.

hmmm

"Administrative and service budgets have already been cut about as much as they can be, Ballard said"

Including his salary???
