L) . i tis 4011 in IN A* m mina istrationAl a - By Mitchell Horowitz University President John Marburger, in a budget report to the University Senate Monday, claimed Gov- ernor Mario Cuomo's 1986-87 state budget proposal mandates 184 cuts in staff positions at Stony Brook and I would have a "disastrous" effect on the university. The Governor's Office, however, claims that while personnel expenditure cuts are required, no layoffs will occur. The state budget which Cuomo released last month, cuts certain educational projects, and falls short in inflationary increases throughout the SUNY system. If passed in its current-form.the budget would pro- vide funding for only 50 percent of the inflationary increases in Other Than Personnel Services (OTPS) areas for Stony Brook. Continued funding for the cam- pus' Living Marine Sciences Institute and W.B. Yeats projects are not provided for in the budget, and would have to be liquidated, according to Marburger. "This is one of those puzzling budgets ... We will beseech the legislature to make restorations," he said "If this budget passes, we'll be in trouble." The budget will take effect April 1, after deliberation by the State legislature. "The personnel reductions proposed in this year's Executive Budget amount to 184 jobs. We think that this is an unrealistic proposal, to put it very mildly ... There is no doubt that cuts of this magnitude would cripple Stony Brook," Marburger wrote in an early draft of his budget statement. Currently Stony Brook employs 2800 staff members on the main campus: how- ever Marburger said maintenance and janitorial .......... ......................................... .............................. ............................................................................. ......................... .......... ....................... ........ ...................... .......................................................................... .......... ............................................................................... workers would be the ones targeted for layoffs.
