(AP) -- Georgia State University says it is eliminating 300 positions in a move to make up for cuts in state funding to save about $9 million. No faculty positions were eliminated.
Spokeswoman Andrea Jones said about 30 of the positions were staffed and those employees were told Monday their jobs were being eliminated. Their last work day will be June 30. The remaining positions were vacant and included part-time
instructors, graduate and student assistants and temporary employees.
In other cost-saving measures, the university has restricted travel and will close the campus for an additional week between
fall and spring semesters.
