“The departments targeted for these massive cuts count Truman, Marshall, Fulbright, and Rhodes #scholars among their alumni. These cuts were recommended by the #consulting firm #rpkGROUP, and there’s every reason to believe they’re a trial balloon for doing this elsewhere. Anyone who cares about #highereducation should be alarmed about what this portends for #publicuniversities.”
