I thought they wanted to know how my research could fit into those systems. I went in and found it was not just the dean and the research director, but the director of human resources was there, too. As part of the reorganization effort, the university was sunsetting the goat program, on which Temu worked. They also terminated his tenured position, effective immediately.

I take this action to replace you with a qualified Navajo individual, again, of my choosing and who will reflect my management leadership approach.

We are proud to begin implementing this historic partnership that will not only create a better coordinated federal approach to postsecondary education and workforce development, but will also ensure that students pursuing higher education pursue programs aligned with their career goals and workforce needs," Assistant Secretary for Postsecondary Education David Barker said in a statement.

Cuts that hurt are obvious: layoffs, program closures, college closures, furloughs, deferred maintenance, pay freezes, travel freezes, etc. It's a well-worn playbook at this point. Most of the moves in this category involve either attacking employee compensation, which causes obvious pain, or putting off necessary investments and living with gradual declines in quality.

While faculty at the state's public research universities-Oklahoma State University and the University of Oklahoma-will keep their tenure, new teaching staff at the 23 affected colleges will shift to renewable contracts tied to "teaching effectiveness, student completion, job placement, and economic alignment."

All but 14 of the 45 universities placed under investigation for participating in the PhD Project and allegedly violating civil rights law have agreed to cease partnering with the organization, the Education Department announced Thursday. The Office for Civil Rights launched the investigations last March, arguing that the PhD Project, a nonprofit organization that connects prospective business doctoral candidates from underrepresented backgrounds with academic networks, was "limit[ing] eligibility based on the race of participants."

According to the policy, administrators may, with the provost and general counsel's written permission, record classes or access existing recordings without telling faculty in order to "gather evidence in connection with an investigation into alleged violations of university policy" and "for any other lawful purpose, when authorized in writing by the provost and the office of university counsel, who will consult with the chair of the faculty."

The mock funeral was a protest against the university administration's plan to overhaul the college by consolidating its departments into four thematic schools including one devoted to human narratives and creative expressions, encompassing what was previously taught in the English, classics, languages and Latino Studies departments, among others. Fears over the future of the humanities aren't limited to New Jersey's second-largest public university.
