UNIVERSITY CAMPUS Budget cuts result in lack of enrollment

Eastern receives less money due to financial problems

By Dominique Giovando Staff Reporter

Eastern is experiencing budget cuts be- cause 300 less students are attending school this year. The school is also receiving less money from the state because of the state’s financial problems as a result of the recession.

Eastern may be getting overlooked by oth- er school’s for the time being, Major said. “These are challenging times.
