Finances

These are tough times.  This morning's Washington Post indicates that Montgomery College will receive a $3.6 million cut from its County.  I've heard that several of the community colleges in Maryland have or will schedule employee furloughs, and only two out of 16 have had any pay increase (CSM was one of the two with a small increase).
 
As I mentioned during my welcome at the faculty's AFACCT meeting, college leaders should strive to shield employees and students from the impacts of these cuts.  So far, we are been able to do that.  It should be interesting to see what happens when the Legislature reconvenes next week.
