【转自Gter】致所有申请UIUC的飞友（消息有待验证，据说是UIUC在校学生收到的）

Dear Students: As we approach the spring semester I write to inform you of the current financial situation at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. As is the case with all public universities in the state we currently face a cash crisis. In the current fiscal year that commenced on July 1, 2009, we have only received 7 percent of our annual appropriation from the state. As I write this letter the state of Illinois owes the University more than $436 million of its appropriation. That number increases every month. As a response, we have instituted a number of measures on campus to ensure that we have the necessary resources to get through the semester with an . check 1point3acres for more.eye to confronting a similar fiscal shortfall in the next fiscal year. Our faculty and administrative staff will begin mandatory furloughs in February. (A furlough is a leave of absence without pay.) We have also been cutting costs at all levels of the university and we are looking at ways we can consolidate services to garner even more savings. Finally, we continue to draw on cash reserves, but these are finite and we can no longer continue to go down this path. Please understand that we are doing everything we can to protect our students - our number one priority - from the impact of these cost-cutting measures. We believe that each fiscal decision we make must not compromise the education of this state's greatest assets, its daughters and sons. Please share this letter with your parents and family members. Great public universities such as ours must be preserved and supported to ensure that Illinois and the nation stay competitive in a global economy. Thank you for your support, Robert A. Easter -baidu 1point3acresChancellor and Provost (Interim)   http://www.illinoisloyalty.com/Forums/showthread.php?p=260494

Chancellor and Provost 出面，真严重啊……
illinois这么穷？拨款才到位7%啊……看来临州的普渡，还算是不错的……
估计自费MS会扩招吧？要不然怎么走出来啊……呵呵

如果只有7%，学校很快就要关门了。后面应该还有钱倒账的。
但是肯定是情况很不妙。

这么穷？？。。。
我们这农村州公立学校没感觉到一点经济差的影响。。。

真的有这么严重吗？没记错的话，UIUC在校学生得有3万。。。

校长发这个信，是为了防止涨学费后自己家被砸吧。。

这么穷？？。。。

普渡也反映还行。虽然学费涨了6%吧，然后裁掉、合并了一些以前不太重要的部门，现在的staff可能比以前累一点。
玉米州不至于这么惨吧……

为了防止涨学费后...

如果只有7%拨款到位……那得涨多少学费才能补上缺口啊……

对了，在那个论坛里，还有个消息，说是illinois的经济状况，现在是倒数第二差，仅次于加州……

个人觉得Illinois是穷了的，虽然那个消息不知是真是假。
之前不是还有ＴＡ什么的大罢工的吗，就是因为他乱改ｃｏｎｔｒａｃｔ忽然说不保证每个ＴＡ都有工资拿了/ｔｕｉｔｉｏｎ　ｗａｉｖｅｒ之类的东东。大意是这样的。

哇，先知先觉没申UIUC。。。

原来有比加州uc系统更悲剧的存在～～
